Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin & Illustrated by Daniel Salmieri

 

"This scrumptious New York Times bestseller has a whole lot of kick!

Dragons love tacos. They love chicken tacos, beef tacos, great big tacos, and teeny tiny tacos. So if you want to lure a bunch of dragons to your party, you should definitely serve tacos. Buckets and buckets of tacos. Unfortunately, where there are tacos, there is also salsa. And if a dragon accidentally eats spicy salsa . . . oh, boy. You're in red-hot trouble.

The award-winning team behind Those Darn Squirrels! has created an unforgettable, laugh-until-salsa-comes-out-of-your-nose tale of new friends and the perfect snack." (goodreads.com)

Have you ever wanted to host a taco part for dragons? If you answered yes, make sure you have enough tacos to fill a boat, and definitely DO NOT put out any spicy toppings or the consequences could be disastrous! Dragons Love Tacos by Adam Rubin follows a young boy who learns about dragons and their love of tacos and parties from the narrator, and then sets out to host a taco party of his own. Unfortunately he fails to read the fine print on the salsa jar and his party takes a turn for the worse. My son (age 5) and I both thoroughly enjoyed reading this book; the comedic plot had us both laughing and the illustrations by Daniel Salmieri are fun, colorful, and just a joy to look at.
