Mouse opens his favorite cookbook while Moose and Pig gather around the kitchen table. The three friends from the beloved If You Give series have decided to share everything they love most. Mouse wants to bake his special cookies. Moose has songs to sing. Pig brings games to play. But each activity leads to another idea, then another adventure. When Mouse starts mixing cookie dough, Moose remembers a perfect song about baking. Pig discovers a game that goes with the melody. Soon the friends realize they can combine all their favorite things into one big celebration. Parents and children can join the fun as these three characters demonstrate how reading, cooking, singing, and playing become even better when shared together. The friends show that the best family time happens when everyone participates in activities that bring joy to each generation.
