In Jack in the Box, a young boy named Jack discovers the joys of being a box-eater. He eats at the Jack in the Box every day, and loves the company of the other boxes. One day, a new box named Roy arrives, and Jack befriends him. Roy is different from the other boxes in that he doesn't eat anything, and Jack is curious about why. Roy tells Jack about the food he has seen in his travels, and how it has made him sick. Jack learns that it's important to eat foods that make you feel good, and not just any food will do. After hearing Roy's story, Jack decides to stop eating at the Jack in the Box and eat only the foods that make him feel good. This teaches Jack about the importance of health, and how to find happiness through food.; 8vo; 273 pages.
