A Snack
By Jennifer Kenny
  

1     Luke was hungry.
 
2     "Mom!" Luke yelled. "I am hungry."
 
3     "OK, Luke," his mom said. "What would you like?"
 
4     "I want a piece of cake," Luke said.
 
5     "Not right now," his mom said. "That is OK once in a while. It is not OK all the time."
 
6     "I want a piece of candy, then," Luke said.
 
7     "That is not good," his mom said.
 
8     "How about an ice pop?" Luke asked.
 
9     "Sorry," his mom said. "Those things have too much sugar in them. They are OK for dessert but not as a snack each day."
