The art is kind of interesting, but I shouldn't get bored in a book this short.
This book shows readers the funny relationship between pizza and taco and them trying to scare each other. The two don't want to admit it, but they are both scared. I would recommend this book to Kindergarten because of the little use of words and illustrations I think they would enjoy. I also think this would be good for 2nd or 3rd grade as an introduction to graphic novels because of the panels throughout.

Premise/plot: It may just be September, but Pizza and Taco are ready for Christmas. They must prepare their letters to Santa Slaw early so they both have time to get on his nice list. The two friends write letters listing everything--and I do mean everything--they want for Christmas. But writing it on a list is no guarantee that you'll get it! (As these two ultimately learn).

Some have been great. Some have been good. Some have been meh. However, I always enjoy spending time with these two even if the plots here and there get weak in places.… (more)
