Once upon a kitchen, the Fridgers chilled on one side. The Cupboard Crew loafed about on the other.
The kitchen may look like a peaceful place, but there was never more division than between the Fridgers and the Cupboard Crew. The Fridgers could be a little too cool. The Cupboard Crew—well, they often got stale. It was clear that the two should never mix. But that was until Peanut Butter (PB, for short) met Jelly. When Jelly finds herself in a sticky situation, it's Peanut Butter to the rescue. And the result is the best friendship since sliced bread.
When PB Met J is the deliciously funny origin story of every child's favorite lunch. Readers will cheer that these sweet and salty characters should always stick together.
“A friendship story with a heaping helping of puns.” –Kirkus Reviews
“This treat of a picture book blends West Side Story with the domestic perspective of Toy Story, serving up a satisfying helping of kitchen-based humor for the pun enthusiast.” –BCCB
“Readers will clamor for more.”–School Library Journal
