Spamton sniffs french fries

Fry Guys by Eric Geron, illustrated by Jannie Ho. Andrews McMeel, 2023. 978152479433. 80pp.

In Spudtown, Idaho, Waffle, Curly, and Sweet Potato (that's them on the cover) are looking for adventure when UFO-nion rings start beaming hot grease at the city. The mayor is no help, but luckily the fries have some ideas about what to do. The whole book is a nice bit of silliness, and had a lot of fry- and potato-based puns to keep adults entertained (or groaning) as they read it to their kids. (Plus there's already a sequel, Batter of the Bands.)

The Luna Sisters Battle for the Moon Blossom (I Like To Read Comics) by Dan Yaccarino. Holiday House, 2025. 9780823456369. 40pp.

The Luna sisters live on opposite sides of the moon, and they're not just very different, they don't get along, either. When they both want the same pretty flower, they decide to battle for it. But then a threat to the flower appears, and they might have to work together to save it.

Hearing Things (TOON Level 2) by Ben Sears. TOON Books, 2024. 9781662665431. 40pp.

Tim loves walking around his neighborhood with his cat, Frankie, recording sounds. He's working on finding sounds that will help his friend Martha finish the scary song she's working on. Frankie soon disappears over a wall into a quiet, spooky old house and helps Tim find what he's looking for.

Leaving the pizza behind to fish and chips it up at two spot offering variations on the theme at contrasting prices also. Duke’s Seafood and Matt’s Fish Basket, interesting they are both dude names, but can they make good fish? Oh, and just some carrot cake for good measure!
