“This is crazy!” Kim said. “Mom, all day, Kurt ate and
ate. Each time I got him a snack, I said, that’s the end of that.
But he was still hungry.”
“Well, he’s a strong, growing child,” said Mrs. Gunter.
“And he was busy all day.”
“That’s right!” said Kurt.
They went to a sub shop nearby. Mrs. Gunter ordered a
sub for each of them, plus some snacks and drinks.
Then Mrs. Gunter hailed a cab. The three of them got in.
The cab took them down the West Side Highway. It dropped
them off in Battery Park, on the south end of Manhattan.
