Description

"When midnight comes on New Year's Eve,

If you're happy as a mouse ...

Then something magic happens

To the cookies in your house "

This is a non-religious holiday book about how gingerbread cookies come to life on New Year's Day and have a party. It's been described as "cute" and "wholesome". It also rhymes, but not in an annoying way. It's meant to explain the (new) holiday tradition of "Gingerpendence Day", which is when, after the holidays are over, you take all the leftover cookies out for a long walk and set them free.
