Mr. Mintz is famous in his neighborhood for cooking up cheesy, gooey, and delicious blintzes. Each spring he shares them with his friends to celebrate to celebrate the holiday of Shavuot. But when he hurts his leg in a skateboarding accident and is unable to cook, what will become of the blintzes?

Join in as Mr. Mintz’s neighbors collaborate to return the kindnesses he has so generously distributed to them over the years.

An author’s note for families includes a short explanation of the Jewish holiday of Shavuot.
