Illustrated by
Amy Walrod.
On their way to a picnic with twelve sandwiches, two friends happen upon more friends, who have their own items to add to the feast. As they add guests, the friends recalculate how to divide up the food, which works fine until a thirteenth friend arrives--empty-handed. This clever introduction to division consists entirely of witty dialogue complemented by Walrod's quirky cut-paper illustrations.
