Its a really interesting book about a young boys obsession with this sandwich booth girl. It is really interesting how the book explores the main characters changing perspective on ms ice sandwich, and how other peoples perspectives changes the point of view we are given.
It didn’t really move me but I got through the short book fast and think of it as an enjoyable read.

It was difficult to read at first, but once I found out the narrator is a 4th grade boy, it made sense. I really enjoyed the characters. I would’ve liked to see the ending drawn out a bit more or removed entirely.

A short story about a fourth grade boy and how he thinks the sandwich selling lady in the supermarket is super cool. Its a cute light hearted read with a hidden moral of how important it is to spend time with the people you love. It doesn't have much of a plot but if you want a short read you can finish in an hour this is definitely the book.
