The SandwichBy: Will
Hoogervorst
This is a story about a sandwich. Not just any sandwich but a ham sandwich.
And here’s how it goes.
On Thursday around
lunchtime Luis saw
another kid’s lunch. His
name was Jacob and he
had a ham sandwich.
Luis slowly crept up to
the lunch box to get a
closer look. Then Luis
did something very
bad indeed… He took
the ham sandwich.
He was about to eat but the end of lunch bell rang. Then he was going to eat it on the was home after school, but he had to take his little sister home from pre-school. And he almost ate it at home but he had too much homework to do.
Soon dinner was ready so Luis stashed the ham
sandwich under his bed where he thought it would be
safe. During dinner his mum got an email from Luis’
school. It was about a stolen sandwich. When his mum
asked if he knew anything about it Luis just said “No.”
The next day at school all anyone could talk about was the stolen ham sandwich. Some kids even played detectives to try and find the criminal.
When an assembly was
called by the principal he
asked if anyone knew
anything about the stolen
sandwich. Everyone including
Luis said ‘No.’
That day while he was
at school the under his
bed doubled in size
again.
All week Luis and the other
students were asked the
same question by their
parents, teachers and
friends; Who stole the ham
sandwich? Every time he
was asked Luis said he
didn’t know anything.
? ?
Luis denied that he knew anything about the
sandwich so many times the sandwich grew to fit
under his bed, then his entire room and then the
corridor next to his room.
One day after school Luis was
walking home and saw his family
and neighbors standing outside his
house shaking in fear. Luis broke
into a run to find out what was
wrong.
When he got to the
crowd he discovered
what had happened .
There sitting where
his house should
have been was an
extremely big
sandwich.
“Please don’t cry!” yelled Luis.
“It’s my fault. I stole the
sandwich.” Luis’ parents were
extremely disappointed in him
demanding an apology. “ But
don’t apologize to us” they
said “apologize to the
sandwich’s owner and your
principal.
So Luis and his family strapped
the sandwich to the top of the car
and headed towards the school.
But the closer they got to the
school the more regretful Luis
became. And the more regretful
Luis became the more the
sandwich began to shrink. So by
the time they got to the school the
sandwich had shrunk to it’s
normal size
Luis then got out of the car took the ham
sandwich of the roof and walked towards Jacob,
who is the original owner of the sandwich, and
said “ I’m very sorry that I stole your sandwich.
Please accept my apology.” And Jacob replied “
Of coarse I accept your apology.” But Luis still
felt bad.
The principal then walked over and
put his hand on Luis shoulder. “
You’ve done the right thing bye
apologizing, but you will have to be
suspended for 2 weeks as
punishment “ said the principal. “ I
know” said Luis “ But I deserve it.”
And finally the ham sandwich was
returned to it’s rightful owner who ate
it quite happily
