Calling all kidz! Do you like comics? Do you like laughing till milk comes out of your nose?! Look no further—do we have the book for you! All your favorite comic characters are right here in one book, including the Peanuts gang, Babymouse, and Lunch Lady. This all-star tribute to classic Sunday comics includes eight sidesplitting, action-packed stories about every kid’s favorite subject—LUNCH! 
 
Lunchtime can be fun, wild, yummy, or complete chaos! And in this second collection of comics, it is definitely hilarious.




Comics Squad Lunch is a compilation of short stories with the main subject being lunch. All of the eight different stories were fun to read and I found myself feeling like a little kid again. I would say my favorite was Lunch Bomb 1943. It was beyond entertaining and the best part it's based on a true story. (Who could have thought potatoes could be so important?). My least favorite was Lunchtime Beagle. I had no idea what Snoopy was trying to do.

Some of the other stories I liked included Crazy Little Thing Called Lunch! where a young girl who eats the same thing every day it's forced to eat something new when the boy she likes asks her to buy something from him. Cave Soup was also pretty cool and I liked how the story unfolded.

I believe this would be a great addition to any library for kids 7-12.
