Synopsis
What happens when a child&’s favorite packed lunch is met with disparaging comments at the school lunch table?In a classroom of sandwiches, four students stand out with their homemade, culturally-specific lunches. But before they can dig in and enjoy their favorite foods, their lunches are spoiled by scrunched noses and disgusted reactions from their sandwich-eating classmates. Follow each of the four students as they learn to cope with their first &“lunch box moments&” in this picture book that encourages empathy and inspires all readers to stand up for their food! Inspired by the &“lunch box moments&” of four acclaimed chefs, Ray Garcia, Preeti Mistry, Mina Park, and Niki Russ Federman, this heartwarming story reminds us all that one&’s food is a reflection of self and an authentic celebration of culture.
