School Lunch Vs. Lunch From Home

Storybook Railroad

As a writing assignment at school, four children write a skit for the school stage that portrays a mock boxing match pitting school lunch against lunch from home. The children in the audience love the presentation and, in the end, the story shows that both lunch options can be healthy if the right foods are chosen. Written by Robin MacBlane, this story first appeared on the Robin And The Giant radio show in the early 1990s. It also is published in the book "The Gift Of The Barking Frog."
