Something from the new book shelf at the library that looked interesting. It was a little longer (required more attention) than my 3 1/2 yr old could handle at bedtime last night, but it would be great for an older kid who loves pizza, or cooking, or interesting competitions for that matter. I thought it was neat that it's based on a true story and there were photos and recipes in the back. The factoids about regional and international pizza toppings was very interesting too.
Loved it! This was sooo cute and based on something real. I have a favorite character due to a unicycle but fun and funny. They are so passionate about something and it really moves them forward.Ages 4+
