Spring Roll Night

1Every Saturday is Spring Roll Night at Linh's house. Dad sets out bowls of shrimp, lettuce, mint, and thin rice noodles. Grandma fills a wide pan with warm water. Linh lines up the plates in a neat row.

2"Who wants to roll first?" Dad asks.

3"Me! Me! Me!" Linh shouts, waving both hands.

4Grandma shows her how. "Dip the rice paper slowly. Count to three. One... two... three. Now lay it flat."

5Linh piles on noodles, mint, and lettuce. Then she adds shrimp, and more shrimp, and even more shrimp. She folds in the sides and begins to roll.

6Rip! The paper tears, and a shrimp slides across the table.

7"Oh no," Linh says in a small voice. "I ruined it."

8Grandma smiles. "It is not ruined. It is just too full. Try again, and use a little less."

9Linh dips a new sheet. This time she adds only a little of each food. She rolls it tight and tucks in the ends. The roll is smooth and round.

10"Look!" Linh cries. "It didn't break! Can I make the next one too?"

11Dad laughs. "You can make all of them!"
