Frances loves bread and jam, it is her favourite thing to eat. She likes it so much that she eats it at every meal, she even trades sandwiches with Albert at lunchtime so that she can have his bread and jam sandwiches. But when her mother stops making any alternative food for Frances, she suddenly finds that she is tired of eating just bread and jam all day and would like to try something else.
