Synopsis

On one completely ordinary December morning, a new boy named Pete arrives in a completely ordinary preschool class. He has with him a mysterious telephone receiver and an awfully exciting secret. You don’t tell secrets to strangers, of course, but Petey isn’t a jealous person – he’ll sure strike up a little deal! On top of that, Pete’s new friends are dearly interested in the secret… and the closer Christmas comes, the more so. A little hint, too: he’ll need all his wits about him!
