Publisher's Synopsis
Michael Heath brings us the heart-warming and uplifting story of Henry and Eugene, all wrapped up in the foil and memory of their late father. This book focuses on Henrys courageous decision on the last day of school to sacrifice his perfect attendance award to help younger brother, Eugene, make garlic bread, Dads speciality, for the school picnic. As Henry pedals away from school and the bell rings, his epic journey begins. What ingredients go into garlic bread? A little garlic, a pinch of oregano, a dab of neighbourly help -- all buttered with stories teaching Henry about his father, his neighbourhood, and himself. Henry learns that making decisions with conviction in an effort to do the right thing holds merit, and may be just what was needed to help his brother and himself come to terms with the death of their father.
