"A graphic mystery for the elementary-school set... For readers looking for something spirited, smart, and spicy, this definitely fits the bill." - Booklist (starred review)

Marin loves the sandwiches his parents make for him-every day they're different and more delicious than the last. One morning, someone dares to steal his favorite sandwich: ham-cheddar-kale. Furious, Marin begins a fevered and famished investigation to unmask the thief. The days go by, the suspects multiply, and Marin's sandwiches continue to disappear.

This droll, graphic caper is a funny school mystery exploring the high stakes of low blood sugar. The first in a series, the book's witty text and graphic illustrations make this perfect for early and advanced readers alike-and for anyone who's been the victim of lunchtime crime.

"Artist Patrick Doyon makes every single page an eclectic experience.. . for any kid that comes in looking for a fun read with a mystery component." - School Library Journal

"A tempest in a lunchbox, but just deserts are dished up in a lip-smacking denouement." - Kirkus Reviews

"To do something that feels fresh with this sub-genre is no easy feat, which makes André Marois and Patrick Doyon's very funny The Sandwich Thief all the more remarkable... A masterful example of how to build tension and atmosphere in children's literature, both in the text and the illustrations." - Kinderlit
