BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH
Pizza and Taco think they are the coolest kids at school - until they arrive, and there's a new kid! B.L.T. seems really cool, but he says stuff Pizza and Taco like to do is for babies, but they think he's cool and want to be with him. Being cool with BLT is boring, and hanging with him gets them in trouble.
The food characters are the best part of the story. So funny to have everyone be a food, even the teacher. I liked the message about it's not always cool to be cool and the twist at the end was great. Shaskan's illustrations are clever, the faces on the Taco and Pizza are so simple, yet expressive. I bet readers will try to draw some of the characters. Highly recommended.
