Synopsis: Bear meets sandwich, adventure ensues. . . . An irresistible treat for fans of Jon Klassen, Peter Brown, and Mo Willems. By now I think you know what happened to your sandwich. But you may not know how it happened. So let me tell you. It all started with the bear . . . So begins Julia Sarcone-Roach&’s delicious tale of a bear, lost in the city, who happens upon an unattended sandwich in the park. The bear&’s journey from forest to city and back home again is full of happy accidents, funny encounters, and sensory delights. The story is so engrossing, it&’s not until the very end that we begin to suspect this is a TALL tale. The wonderfully told story, spectacular illustrations, and surprise ending make this Julia Sarcone-Roach&’s best book to date. You&’ll want to share it with your friends (and keep a close eye on your lunch).Praise for The Bear Ate Your Sandwich:***Winner of an Ezra Jack Keats New Writer Honor Award!***"This story is mischief-making at its finest. And just like a good sandwich, it's hard to resist." - Book Page"Charming" — The Wall Street Journal"While the bear storyline is entertaining in itself, the ending twist will equally delight kids who love to spot untruths, and a second reading for hints as to the narrator&’s credibility may well be in order." — The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, Starred review
