Lucy felt quite amazed. A story, just from a sandwich! How perfectly marvelous! She looked around, her eyes wide with curiosity, wondering what other tales these tasty books held. She spotted a bright yellow sandwich, neatly tucked between a cucumber roll and a fluffy egg-and-cress. It had a little sprinkle of green herbs on top, and it seemed to hum with a tiny, gentle energy.
This, she thought, looked like a Mustard Mystery sandwich. She picked it up, feeling its soft, yielding bread. Taking a brave little bite, a surprising zing tickled her tongue! It wasn't too hot, but it was certainly a burst of flavor, a little bit spicy and wonderfully sharp. And with that sharp taste came a sharp burst of knowledge, like a sudden sparkle in her mind!
