Editorial Reviews

"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?

My son loves the pizza and Taco series, and we already have a pre order for the new book coming out in Jan 2024, however this one didn't seem as funny as the rest and a little bit on the boring side.

My 8yr old son LOVES this series! We have all 6 of them and can’t wait for the new one to come out in January 2024! We coral read a couple chapters in these together. He’s obsessed with pizza (he wants to be a pizza man when he grows up) so he reads pizza and I read taco. We share the extra characters. These books are short, engaging, and goofy.
