Sarah Simpson is tired of being ordinary - of her ordinary name, her ordinary looks, and her ordinary food. But what can she do to be special? She tries changing her name, the way she dresses, eating squid, but to no avail. Finally she has an idea - a BIG idea - that will not only save her classmate Tim Wong's family restaurant from closure, but will also make people want to say: "Here comes Sarah Simpson!" This enjoyable story vividly encapsulates a child's wish to be seen as unique, and also the pride and satisfaction of doing a good deed for somebody.
