Two eggs, please.

by Sarah Weeks, Betsy Lewin (Illustrator)

Overview

Eggs, eggs, eggs — everyone wants eggs! But do they want the same kinds of eggs? NO! Some prefer scrambled, some like fried, and some even want them raw.
The only thing the hungry customers at this bustling diner seem to have in common is a desire for "TWO EGGS, PLEASE!"
At the heart of this clever new look at similarities and differences by acclaimed author Sarah Weeks and Caldecott Honor-winning illustrator Betsy Lewin is an age-old truth — it's what's inside that counts.
