Summary
When Holling was done bringing the cream puffs down to his teachers car she said he could have one and so he did. He never ate it and threw it away quietly. His teacher never knew until farther in the book. When his teacher has him do one more chore he says for another cream puff. His classmates think he got one so he has to buy 22 cream puffs because he got one and he didn't eat them. The way he is able to get 22 cream puffs is by preforming in a Shakespeare play. When he went to buy them he was $2.80 short. This in the 60's so $2.80 was more money than it is now. He tells the baker and so he needs someone who knows Shakespeare. Luckily he has been studying Shakespeare and so he can buy 22 cream puffs and he gets 2 free.
