my favorite poem was always peanut butter sandwich. it was about a king who only ate peanut butter sandwiches and nothing else (it was the law to only eat them in his country and to only learn the history of making peanutbutter sandwiches in school) until after haveing his men make a giant one he took a bite and his mouth was too sticky and he could not open it.

we'll find your books in august when you're back home.

congrats on the test
