The Bear Ate Your Sandwich

Bear meets sandwich, adventure ensues. . . . A sly classic-in-the-making 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).

"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
