When Leo and his mother have to escape their home, their baking is abruptly halted. Before leaving, they manage to grab some warm loaves of bread, a kneading bowl, and a jar of the family’s miraculous sourdough starter.

Whenever she gets a chance, Mother bakes more bread. Along the way, she shares it with friends and strangers.
