A celebration of the inventiveness of parents - laugh-out-loud funny and thoroughly heartwarming.
William Steig (Author, Illustrator)
William Steig (1907 - 2003) was a prolific American cartoonist,
sculptor and, later in life, an author of popular children's
literature. Most noted for the books Sylvester and the Magic
Pebble, Abel's Island and Doctor De Soto, he also created the
character Shrek, who inspired the popular movie series.
From its tongue-tantalizing title to its understated but delightful
ending, Pete's a Pizza is a tour de force
*School Library Journal*
[Allan Ahlberg has chosen Pete's A Pizza as one of his top ten
picture books, and says:] He [William Steig] wrote and illustrated
this book when he was 90, I believe, which is a fact I find hugely
encouraging. Also it does have one of the world's best covers
ever.
