Synopsis
Sarah Simpson is tired of being ordinary. The most unusual thing she has ever done is bite the dentist’s fingers. So what can she do to be special? Trade names with her best friend? Eat snails and squid? When Sarah learns that her favorite Chinese restaurant might go out of business, she comes up with a plan. One that makes people want to say, "Here comes Sarah Simpson!" and saves Wongs’ Restaurant, too. In quintessential Phyllis Reynolds Naylor style, this delightful story speaks straight to the heart of kids as they struggle to define themselves.

From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4-Sarah Simpson's family thinks that she is extraordinary, but she feels ordinary and is anxious to find a special quality that sets her apart. This concept, by itself, is interesting and well fleshed out. At school, she tries to trick the substitute teacher by switching names with her best friend, but that doesn't solve her "problem." She tries other ideas to no avail. Her solution arrives with an opportunity to help the parents of a classmate whose restaurant isn't doing well. Much too quickly, Sarah comes up with a plan-a T-shirt advertising "Wongs' Wings," a house specialty. Appealing full-page and spot illustrations appear throughout. Readers will like the protagonist, her family, and her friends. However, the author spends so much time setting up the Simpsons that there is almost no time for the story of the Chinese restaurant and for Sarah's individuality to develop.-Susan Lissim, Dwight School, New York City
