Lunch Lady and the Author Visit Vendetta (2009) written by Jarrett J. Krosoczka is a graphic novel apart of children’s series. This series is about a lunch lady who doubles as a super hero protecting the students and the teachers at Thompson Brook School. This particular graphic novel tells the story of an author who has a vendetta against gym teachers because when he was in elementary school he was made fun of by his gym teacher for not being athletic. The lunch lady puts an end to the author’s...more
I really loved this children's graphic novel. I thought it was hilarious and creative -- while saving gym teachers and kids alike, Lunch Lady and her trusty sidekick Betty invent and use all sorts of clever contraptions meant to look like school lunch food items (a laser that looks like a ketchup packet, special headphones that let them hear conversations all over the school but that look like a hamburger, etc.) I loved the artwork, as well -- Lunch Lady has some of the best 80's hair I've ever...more
After not being very impressed with book 1 and slightly enjoying book 2, I must say book 3 here has left me feeling much better about this series. After a rather curmudgeonly kiddy author visits to sign books, the school's coach disappears. Lunch Lady and the gang do some research and it seems school coaches have been disappearing for a few years back now coinciding with this author's school visits! Lunch Lady to the rescue! Lunch Lady is still a bit over the top with the kitchen gadget spy tool...more
I must say that I have never been to an author-signing, but if I went to one, and an author refused to sign my book, it would make me very upset, and I would probably never read any of said author's books again.

In Book #3, we see a famous author, who writes the *Flippy Bunny* books come to the school. He gets kinda tizzed that he must do his signing in the gym instead of the library, and even refuses to sign one child's book just because it has a small bend on the cover. An...more

12/13 I have just finished reading lunch lady: the author visit vendetta, by Jarret Krosoczka. It is a graphic novel about a lunch lady with cool gadgets that help her stop evil people. In this book, she stops a evil author from trying to capture all the gym teachers in the world!!! I like this book because it is exciting, for example, when lunch lady tried to get into the evil author's house, she get's captured by evil hypnotized fluffy bunnies!This book is a action packed book, even though it...more
The gym teacher disappears after a famous author visits the school. When Lunch Lady looks into the case she finds that gym teachers are missing from all around the country. Wht do the schools have in common? All of the schools invited the author for a visit.
The kids and Lunch Lady team up to free the gym teachers hypnotized into servitude. In addition to the main action, Terrence hopes to join the soccer team. His skills in rescuing the gym teachers and thwarting the author's getaway serve as a...more

Lunch Lady finds it fishy that the school's gym teacher seems to have disappeared on the same day as a visiting author has come to Thompson Brook School. The author's long-standing vendetta against gym teachers is to blame for his disappearance. As always, this Lunch Lady text was so humorous and engaging. Lunch Lady and Betty are great at ensuring that justice (and lunch!) are served.
I think that this book was enjoyable to read. It is one of those books that is good to read when you don't know what to read. It is about a school lunch lady that is a secret spy. In this story Luch Lady finds that the school Gym teacher has disapperaed. She finds that she needs to help solve the problem. I would reccomend this book to all readers.

Lunch Lady and the Author Visit Vendetta by Jarrett J. Krosoczka is the third of the Lunch Lady series. Dee, Terrence and Hector are excited to have a favorite author at their school. When the author isn't what they expected and the school coach goes missing, the kids and the Lunch Lady (with trusty Betty at her side) must investigate.

Audience: Grades 1-4, kids who like spy stuff or mysteries
Appeal: lunch lady is a spy with kooky gadgets like taco-vision night goggles. gym teacher disappears. would be good for beginning readers or students new to graphic novels. Would be fun to make up your own food-related spy gadget.

"FLIPPY BUNNIES ... ATTACK!"
An author with a vendetta. Can totally understand that. Now, how many authors can actually afford a helicopter?
The spy gadgets are cool! A mustard grappling hook and ketchup packet laser. Hamburger headphones. They make me laugh. :]

I didn't like this book very much. I just don't think it's anything special. The art is ok, but not fantastic. The story is ok, but not all that exciting. Yawn.
My favorite part of the book is the gadgets the lunch lady uses, like a spork phone and cannolioculars. That's clever.

Lunch Lady book #3 wasn't so interesting for me. But i don't get the point why the author didn't sign the book for Hector! I would recommend this book to someone who comic books. Like The Smurfs, Asterix or Tintin.

How can you not like a lunch lady superhero? In this book, the children's author is the villain. How delightfully twisted! This would be a good book for boy reluctant readers. It's short, entertaining and has a spread of killer bunnies.
I would be a big "Lunch Lady" fan if Krosoczka hadn't made the librarians in his book such mean, evil characters! In this one a visiting author is out for revenge and it is Lunch Lady to the rescue. Fun--this one will be popular.
I picked this up at the public library to see if this would be a good series to put in my classroom library. Any students who like Captain Underpants or Diary of a Wimpy Kid will like these very charming and humorous books.
The Lunch Lady is pretty great. I'm particularly keen for Betty, the Lunch Lady's sidekick. She's the one who serves up the clever gadgetry, like taco-vision night goggles, a spatu-copter and hamburger headphones. What's not to love!
Addie said this book was awesome. She's loving the Lunch Lady series, Dear Dumb Diary, and Babymouse. Any other recommendations for an 8 year old who is into graphic stuff this summer?
I must say that I enjoyed the first two thus far, but this one just wasn't quite up to the same standard. It was still a fun read and definitely one to give to fans of graphic novels.
Lunch Lady is hands-down my FAVORITE superhero. Here she squares off against the epitome of cunning, dastardly EVIL -- a children's picture book author. Need I say more?
This is probably my favorite Lunch Lady graphic novel. It was funny and meshed the lunch ladies with the kids, or Breakfast Bunch, well. I liked the plotline and the crazy bunnies and the author visit part.
The Lunch Lady series is a ton of fun, what with the fancy weapons they come up with, the crime they fight, and the way they continue to secretly save the school.
Funny, action-packed, and a quick read. Definitely a popular mix. Easier than I had expected, so I think it would be a good companion to Babymouse.
The third installment in this graphic novel series for younger readers includes hypnotism, revenge, kidnapping, and the attack of the fluffy bunnies!
I once ran an author visit, so I know that this book is based on real-life events! Another great installment in the lunch lady series.
Lunch Lady, the kids, attack bunnies, coaches being hypnotized, even an author visit...what more can you ask for. Loved this one.
Totally hilarious continuing saga of the Lunch Lady. This time, she has to contend with an evil author and attacking bunny rabbits!
Fun, easy, long-format comic book. The Lunch Lady must save the gym teacher from the evil author and his attacking fluffy bunnies.
A bitter author causes havoc that includes attack bunnies and dodgeball. One of my students' favorite Lunch Lady comics.
