Secret Pizza Party by Adam Rubin - NO

Rubin, Adam Secret Pizza Party, illustrated by Daniel Salmieri.  PICTURE BOOK.  Dial (Penguin), 2013.  $17.  Raccoon adores pizza, but for some reason people are always causing him away.  The narrator suggests that he have a secret pizza party, because everything secret is better. 
There weirdest thing about this book is the raccoon dressing in costume and then stealing the pizza.  It is definitely a strange non-linear story that i just couldn’t quite connect to.  Had Racoon not stolen the pizza, I think I would be more enthusiastic.
NOT RECOMMENDED.  Cindy - Library Teacher
