This book review was written by my son, Gage Bailey: age 14.
My name is Gage Bailey and I am 14 years old. I read this story in a book called The Gage Project - a book of short stories by various authors that supports the Ronald McDonald house.

I couldn't help it, I found myself laughing aloud many times as I read this story. The idea of someone running down the street screaming while a giant pizza man chased her was both funny and scary. I struggled between wanting to eat a pizza and being laughingly grossed out.

Who would have thought a story about people turning into Pizzas would be so funny, especially when there is some mystery mixed in for good measure. Vickie Johnstone, author of several other fun and witty novels will make you laugh with "Day of the Living Pizza." Her character names alone will give you pause for a belly laugh. I'm glad to have stumbled on this story and discovered the Gage Project. I hope it has been tremendously successful.
I am a big fan of Vickie Johnstone's Kiwi series and had heard good things about this particular book so I downloaded it and am glad I did.
This book was written to raise money for a charity and the reader is rewarded for his/her purchase with a laugh out loud, entertaining story.
"Day of the Living Pizza" was written for the younger generation but anyone who wants a good, goofy, fun read will get a kick out of this story. It is silly but that is what makes the story so enjoyable to read.
