If I eat a magic bagel…
one morning Art and Anik were very very tired. Their son Casey had a new teeth coming out, it was so painful for him so he cried all night and they didn’t sleep at all. When they kneaded the dough, they forgot to take a little piece of it out in order to make the magic bagel. When they thought about it, it was already too late. But it actually turned out to be one of the most special days in the history of Beacon… You can draw or write here what you think happened that day and send it to us…
