“YAAAS! This lunch bunch serves pure silliness.” –Kirkus
Reviews
"A perfect choice for early readers beginning their climb
to Dog Man.” –Booklist
"Fans of Clanton’s Narwhal and Jelly series will find these
foodie friends particularly appealing." –The Bulletin
"There’s plenty of gross-out humor for kids. Readers will
relate to the joy and frustration of friendly competition,
and the hilarity of watching an animated taco and slice of
pizza do their best-friends dance is not to be missed. A delightful
graphic novel for young readers." –School Library Journal
Kid praise for Pizza and Taco: Who's the Best?

because...PIZZA!" –Charlie, age 7
"It's a great mix of friendship, competition, and
delicious food!" –Shira, age 9
