Besties Pizza and Taco are ready to rock out! They have a cool band name! And some instruments—sort of. Songs? Well, even without mad musical skills, how hard can it be? This super-silly graphic novel series by Stephen Shaskan hits a new high note!
Pizza and Taco love music! They make lists, and they have tryouts to get more band members. They think they have all the ingredients to rock the scene. But maybe this garage band should stay in the garage!!
This hilarious young graphic novel—with chapters—will tickle the funny bones of kids ages 5 to 8 and bolster their reading confidence. Young graphic chapter books are a great step on the way to graphic novels and longer chapter books.
Readers will devour all the books in the series: Pizza and Taco: Who's the Best? Pizza and Taco: Best Party Ever! Pizza and Taco: Super-Awesome Comic! Pizza and Taco: Too Cool For School
“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?
"This book is really funny! I love this book, because...PIZZA!" –Charlie, age 7
"It's a great mix of friendship, competition, and delicious food!" –Shira, age 9
