Praise for this book

"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
