My name is Estie, and I love to bake,
But one day, my ring fell into a cake.

Who will be bringing my ring back to me?”

When Yaakov’s friends all go off to camp and leave him behind, Yaakov is convinced it will be the worst summer ever. He’s sad, lonely, and – most of all – bored!

But then he meets Gumzy L Tova, an unusual clown with a special gift for making people happy and Yaakov’s summer starts to look entirely different…
