The Duchess of Whimsy has absolutely no interest in the Earl of Norm until he makes a sandwich that causes her to look at him in an entirely different way.

    This was an extravagant book! I loved how the simplest of things, like a grilled cheese sandwich and milk, amazed the most extravagant of people!!!!! ***

    I thought this book was a fantastic . In the story all of the characters are very illistrated and drawn with good details and great colors. When i read this book i was a little confused on the writing and the main idea of the story, but after reading the sentence more than once,i understood the story better. Other than that, the book was awesome!!!!!

    This book has a connection with me. I always am simple and I don't think highly of fashion or popularity with the whole school. So I really thought this was like a cheering-me-up book that really says something simple can really be great in the long run. ****
