Sam's Sandwich [Hardcover]

Just how gross can Sam make that sandwich he’s giving to his sister? Lift the flaps to find out! A classic kid-pleaser, back by popular demand.

Sam’s sister wants a very special sandwich, so he does his best to oblige. Lettuce, cheese, tomato, salami, and so much more. Just unfold each layer to see what surprise he has slipped underneath—if you haven’t already figured it out from the hints in the rhyming text! Served up as a sandwich-shaped book with a gruesome guessing game on every spread, Sam’s Sandwich is a delectable gift for little terrors. 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 WeeklyDavid Pelham has written and illustrated many books for children.
