What an excellent story - and so very well told. You maintained the interest of the reader throughout, and also made some very wise and significant points. One could feel the struggle Josh had about surrendering his lunch basket, and the following blessings. best wishes for this outstanding entry.

Dear Mystery Author,
A very nice story about how sharing can be enjoyable. And may even make your story go down in history forever! Those bullies won't be remembered for long but someone who shared is remembered with a story in the Bible. That is pretty stinking cool! Thanks!
