Pizzasaurus cares about one thing and one thing only: PIZZA! And he’s inviting you to a prehistoric pizza party in this hilarious picture book from the beloved author of Wordy Birdy and Mary Had a Little Glam.

Meet Pizzasaurus, a dinosaur with a unique twist! While other dinosaurs are famous for their size, strength, or spikes, Pizzasaurus is known for his love of pizza.

But what if Pizzasaurus’s friends are feeling a bit left out? Luckily, pizza is perfect for sharing, and that makes Pizzasaurus a special dinosaur indeed.

Bursting with "cheesy" puns and bright, zany dinosaur scenes, this supremely silly and sweet story is the perfect treat for any kid who loves dinosaurs and pizza. Get ready for a fun-filled adventure that celebrates friendship, sharing, and the joy of everyone’s favorite food!

★ "This is a terrific book to read aloud when some humor is needed, or classroom pizza parties are about to commence." —School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW

"The pizza-themed puns and wordplay ramp up the read-aloud potential. Cheesy in all the best ways." —Kirkus Reviews

"Perfect for fans of Danny and the Dinosaur and anyone who thinks life would be more exciting with some friendly faces from the Jurassic Period." —Booklist
