My friend and I have a Pinterest of books which feature Unlikely Friends. Pizza and Taco sure are very unlikely friends who discover differences can be fun.
There are five short chapters in this book and the text is presented as a dialogue between the four characters - Pizza, Taco of course and minor side kicks Hamburger and Hotdog.
- Chapter One - Pizza and Taco are best friends
- Chapter Two - Pizza and Taco: who is the best?
- Chapter Three - Pizza and Taco Vote for the best
- Chapter Four - Pizza and Taco prove who's the best
- Chapter Five - Pizza and Taco: The true meaning of being the best
Chapter three is a fun commentary on how elections work which you could share with a group of older students perhaps.
There are six books in this series and they are perfect for newly independent readers. These fun and attractive books would be a fabulous addition to any school library. Here is the web site for Stephen Shaskan. These books are also the perfect introduction to graphic novels. My friend calls them Toon and she has a large collection of them in her library.
These books were first published in US but the first title has now published here in Australia by Scholastic for a really good price of AUS$11. I hope they have a plan to bring us the other books in the series which are way too expensive at AUS$25 for the hardcover editions.
