Young Harry's big sister Laura cheats him every time their mother bakes treats. Laura gives Harry a larger number of treats--but in small, broken pieces. Eventually their mother helps Harry cheat Laura back. The illustrations include warm, homey details, but the tone of the book is subverted by the general mean-spiritedness.
