Saturday morning in Austin. You\u2019re standing in the lobby of a car dealership (not necessarily your first choice on a weekend morning) when you look outside and see a food truck in the parking lot.\u00a0Amazing,\u00a0you think.\u00a0Some breakfast sounds great. Outside, a line forms in the Texas sun. You smell sizzling bacon and something else, something doughy and nostalgic.\u00a0Pancakes.\u00a0At the cash register, a young boy (Ten? Twelve?) takes orders. When it\u2019s your turn, he gives you a smile: \u201cWhat can I get started for you today?\u201d And that\u2019s when you realize. This isn\u2019t someone\u2019s dutiful son or nephew helping out with the family business. The entire\u00a0kitchen crew\u00a0is ten, eleven, twelve years-old. You can see them flipping pancakes, frying bacon, printing tickets, serving food. And now, the line is 20 people deep. Orders are flying in faster than the tickets can print. No, your eyes aren\u2019t deceiving you. No, this isn\u2019t child labor. This is the Lil\u2019 Dippers food truck, proudly owned and operated by fifth and sixth graders at\u00a0Alpha School. A few feet away, their teacher. Bryan. He watches and observes, mostly keeping an eye on the hot griddles and ovens. (The kids are handling the customers like pros.) When your food is ready \u2014\u00a0\u201corder up! \u201d\u00a0\u2014 you march over to Bryan, pancakes in hand. \u201cYou have to tell me the story of this food truck.\u201d Read the full article here"}
