Anyone Can Eat Squid! — Phyllis Reynolds Naylor

Sarah Simpson is tired of being ordinary. The most unusual thing she has ever done is bite the dentist's fingers. So what can she do to be special? Trade names with her best friend? Eat snails and squid? When Sarah learns that her favorite Chinese restaurant might go out of business, she comes up with a plan. One that makes people want to say, "Here comes Sarah Simpson!" and saves Wongs' Restaurant, too. In quintessential Phyllis Reynolds Naylor style, this delightful story speaks straight to the heart of kids as they struggle to define themselves.
