I Need a Lunch Box

By Jeannette Franklin Caines

Book Overview

Sometimes it's hard to be a younger brother and watch your older sister get everything she needs to start school -- especially when what you want most is to have a bright, shiny new lunch box just like hers. And it doesn't matter if you're still not old enough to go to school -- a lunch box is the perfect place to keep dozens of things besides food. In a wonderful and imaginative collaboration of talents, Jeannette Caines and Pat Cummings have teamed up to create a delightful fantasy about one boy's dream of having a lunch box of his own.

An Excellent Experience

I Need A Lunch Box is great for teaching about colors and various environmental elements, such as things related to the ocean, the dessert, and every day materials. It's filled with imaginative illustrations. The story line is nice.

Imaginitive enough for my little guys

My boys love this book. I had to read it over and over again for my oldest on, and now again with our younger one. The bright colorful pictures catch their eyese. The story told from the point of view of a very young child seemed easily relatable to my little ones. Not onl is it a good book with fantastic pictures, it helps teach the days of the week and colors. I have no idea what the other reviewer is talking about. This is a good children's book no matter what color your children are.
