books i have read (or started to read)

    Summary: This is what i have for lunch every single day: peanut butter on one slice of bread, milk, and an apple, preferably a Mclntosh because they're tangy with a thin skin, which Daddy says resembles me at times. "Don't you want to try something different, Ida B?" Daddy will say. Well, by lunchtime I'm wide awake and I've already been busy doing my chores and learning and having some fun. I've got a list of things that i cant wait to do in the afternoon, my head is filled to the rim with interesting ideas and plans, an thats exactly how i want it to stay. "There are too many things to think about in this world besides what I'm going to have for lunch, Daddy," I say,  and he looks at me like i am a true mystery.
