I received this book from The Children’s Book Review + M. Proia in exchange of an honest review.

OK, I thought I was already going to be enjoying this one, but I did it even more! This was just adorable! Meet Rae! A girl with big ambitions, big dreams. Each day of the week she is doing something different, like on Wednesday she is a scientist and does all sorts of fun experiments! And today? Today, she is hungry. And what best way to defeat hunger then to make a yummy sandwich? Of course, “aided” by the assistance of her pets. And yes, I say “aided” because dear sweet Rae has big plans on her sandwiches and her pets (but also later her parents) keep taking away bits of her sandwich (some of them very sneakily *looks at Phebe*). I was curious if she was even able to make a sandwich further than the bread, because it did seem to go that way, haha. Poor Rae.

I loved seeing her try to make a sandwich and I loved how sweet she was about each element. How it wasn’t just throw everything on that plate, and om nom nom, oh no, she is making a family. And not just parents but also sweet feelings and warmth. I was just aww-ing at her monologue on what each ingredient was for. It was just too sweet and I loved it. I am curious to see her make other things as well and if she would do the same there.

The ending was a bit sad at first but then turned into something much more warm and I was just very happy with it. That was so cute!

I also loved the illustrations and the style. It gave me nostalgic vibes!

All in all, I would recommend this book to everyone! Sandwiches, family, pets, and tons of cuteness!
