Reseñas de la Crítica

“Budding cooks, dedicated eaters, and culinary historians will relish the presentation. A tasty overview of a popular dish.” –Kirkus Reviews

“Geisel Award Winner Pizzoli serves up fun in this high-interest helping for early readers.” –Booklist

“Pizzoli’s four-color print illustrations—in Italian-themed red, white, and green, complemented with swaths of doughy yellow—sport the wry humor his fans have come to recognize.” –The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

“Readers learn from the neon-bright pages of Pizza! A Slice of History, a picture book by Greg Pizzoli, who, given his name, might have been born with an appetite for the subject. Light and chatty, with blocky illustrations in four culinary colors, the book takes readers ages 3-8 through the origins and attributes of a beloved foodstuff.” –Wall Street Journal

“Celebrating pizza as both common ground and a delicious emblem of individuality, Pizzoli’s enthusiasm proves as bubbly as piping-hot mozzarella.” –Publishers Weekly
