This book is about the Wemmicks, they are small wooden people that are created by the wood carver Eli. The Wemmicks would give each other stickers, stars are good, and dots are bad. Punchinello was only given dots, and he did not like the sticker system of the Wemmicks, and met a Wemmick that stickers didn't stick to. She told him to go see Eli. After going to see Eli, he tells him that he loves him and thinks he is special. This makes Punchinello happy, and the dots start to fall off of him.
