Do you like laughing till milk comes out of your nose? Look no further than COMICS SQUAD: LUNCH! Lunchtime can be fun, wild, terrifying, yummy, or downright disgusting. And in this second collection of comics, it is definitely hilarious.

My five-year old is a huge fan of graphic novels,and since we have previewed COMICS SQUAD: LUNCH!  he loves them even more. He has many favorites, but one of those are Jarrett Krosoczka‘s . I have read Lunch Girl at least a million times, and the times when we can’t read it together he sits quietly and flips through the pages.

Each of the stores is separate, but offers the same color scheme and all offer a lunch time theme.  Even though all the artists have different styles, the book flows nicely

I’m so thrilled that all these talents were able to come together to bring us the second installment of the Comics Squad series.  The first book in the series, COMICS SQUAD: RECESS! Quickly garnered acclaim among kids, parents, librarians and educators. Fans of COMICS SQUAD: RECESS will devour COMICS SQUAD: LUNCH!

COMICS SQUAD: LUNCH! is a must-read for comic-book enthusiasts of all
