Review Quotes

"Encased in thick boards to simulate slices of bread, a comic novelty: deftly phrased verse describes a sandwich Sam stacks for his innocent sister, each layer (lettuce, cheese, etc.) hiding a creature within a clever foldout, the whole truly resembling a fat booby trap of a sandwich. Guaranteed to compel attention." --Kirkus Reviews

"Once they feast their eyes on the exterior of this mouth-watering volume, youngsters will be impatient to dig in. . . . This cleverly designed book accomplishes what it sets out to do: it serves up a tasty little snack rather than a full-course meal." --Publishers Weekly
