Flashlights? Check! Scary movies? Check! Ghost Peppers?! Pizza and Taco are ready to prove they're brave as can be in their latest graphic chapter book! Nothing scares these besties...or so they say.
Pizza and Taco aren't afraid! To prove it, they dare each other to be scared. Dark closets and scary movies are a piece of cake—kind of. They're ready for the ultimate test—Ghost Pepper hunting! Pizza and Taco are sure they won't get scared...they made a list, after all!
This hilarious young graphic novel—with chapters—will tickle the funny bones of kids ages 5-8 and bolster their reading confidence. Young graphic chapter books are a great step on the way to graphic novels and longer chapter books. Readers will also love the first five books in the series: Who's the Best? Best Party Ever! Super-Awesome Comic! Too Cool for School Rock Out!
STEPHEN SHASKAN has always loved comics—reading them and making them! He grew up reading Marvel, DC, Harvey Comics, and Mad magazine and created his first comic, Super Grandpa, when he was in elementary school. He now creates the graphic chapter book series Pizza and Taco and is super excited to be sharing all he’s learned in this special activity book. Stephen lives with his wife and frequent collaborator, Trisha Speed Shaskan in Minneapolis. Visit him at online and follow him on social media to see more Pizza and Taco content.

Readers will relate to the joy and frustration of friendly competition, and the hilarity of watching an animated taco and slice of pizza do their best-friends dance is not to be missed. A delightful graphic novel for young readers." –School Library Journal
