Land of mince pie dreams and alligator misadventure
A whimsical tale follows Little Sam Sugartooth as he dreams of a land where mince pies grow, meets bakemen in the oven world, and learns a wary appetite for pies after an awakening. The narrative shifts to a true alligator story in Florida with Percy and Roy, who subdue a three and a half foot gator using a barrel stave and a necktie, tethering it before release, then meanders through natural history notes and reflections on kindness and neighborly deeds.
