A celebration of the inventiveness of parents - laugh-out-loud funny and thoroughly heartwarming

Pete is in a bad mood. It's raining and he can't play out.

But never fear, Pete's dad has just the idea to cheer Pete up - turn him into a pizza! He kneads the dough, adds oil and tomatoes, and with some tickles and giggles along the way, before long the sun comes out...

A picture book classic from the creator of Shrek.

Praise for Pete's a Pizza

From its tongue-tantalizing title to its understated but delightful ending, Pete's a Pizza is a tour de force

School Library Journal

[Allan Ahlberg has chosen Pete's A Pizza as one of his top ten picture books, and says:] He [William Steig] wrote and illustrated this book when he was 90, I believe, which is a fact I find hugely encouraging. Also it does have one of the world's best covers ever.
