About the Book
"Curly, Sweets, and Waffle want to win a music contest. There's 10,000 sprouts on the line--but with stage fry-t, trickery, and a talented line-up, can the Fry Guys prevail?"--Book Synopsis
Waffle, Curly, and Sweets want to be a real spud-rock band! But in order to get the greases going, they need a music studio where they can rehearse. So when they see there's an upcoming Batter of the Bands event happening at the House of Bleus, and the first-place prize is 10,000 Sprouts, they're all in. Unless, of course, a monstrous stack of pancakes has something to say about that . . . readers will love this full-color graphic novel full of fun, action, adventure, and laugh-out-loud funny puns. The Fry Guys are ready to rock in Spudtown's very first Batter of the Bands! Curly, Sweets, and Waffle want to win a music contest. There's 10,000 sprouts on the line. But with stage fry-t, trickery, and a talented line-up, can the Fry Guys prevail? Fry Guys: Batter of the Bands is all about some good, healthy, greasy competition. With hilarious text by #1 New York Times bestselling author Eric Geron and adorable art by Jannie Ho, it's perfect for young graphic novel readers, English language learners, and potato enthusiasts of all kinds! The font used in the graphic novel is also Dyslexia-friendly. Will you have fries with that? "Spud-tacular ... Using colors as emphatic as the frequent sound effects, Ho cranks up the temperature in simply drawn panels of fast-food action that, ultimately, hurtles headlong into a peaceable caramelization and general celebrations of both differences and three new 'home fry heroes.' Readers will demand extra helpings." - Kirkus "With zany illustrations, clever wordplay, and laugh-out-loud storytelling, this graphic novel is exactly the right kind of good-humored silliness for emerging readers who are just beginning to discover the fun of books." - School Library Journal "The memorable potato characters and hilarious antics make this perfect for kids just getting into reading comics independently. Betcha can't read just one!" - BooklistAbout the Author
