secret pizza party. adam rubin and daniel salmieri. (220)


i picked up secret pizza party by adam rubin and illustrated by daniel salmieri so i could make mini pizzas with the girls i babysit, avery and audrina.  though the pizzas turned out weird cos i used pillsbury grands so they puffed up too much.  they were more like pizza biscuits.  but we all enjoyed the story!  esp me!!

i had a feeling i would love it because i love their other book, dragons love tacos.  i love tacos so it's a bit of a no-brainer.  i love pizza too, so again loved this book.

the book is about a raccoon that loves pizzas but people never want to share or give him any.  the raccoon decided the only way to get pizza is to have a secret pizza party!  and thankfully it is a success!!  

the book is funny and features random yet hilarious things for kids and adults to enjoy as well.  the illustrations are great too!

i loved the inside cover.

this cute little ode to pizza (i instagramed this pic).


loved the adjective, pepperoni-ness


i also loved how the book demonstrated how the adjective "secret" can make a world of difference:


last but not least loved the raccoon's "mask" at the party.


an adorable book that you should check out and definitely have pizza with it!

  1. This book inappropriately encourages secrecy to a very young audience. It also condones stealing. The overall theme reminds me of a paedophile grooming a child. Yuk, it should not be on the market.
