"Valikoima satuja" by Hanna Cederholm is a collection of fairy tales written in the early 20th century. The stories feature a variety of characters and whimsical plots, exploring themes of adventure, love, and morality, with settings ranging from enchanted forests to royal courts.

He has seven donkeys, each named after the musical scale, and uses music to summon them for deliveries. The townsfolk admire his talent, and even the king becomes curious about this unique baker and his remarkable donkeys. However, a twist occurs when a royal crown jewel goes missing, and the baker is unjustly blamed, leading to a frantic search for the jewel, intertwining the everyday with the extraordinary.
