He can’t shake his funk, until his brilliant dad decides it’s time to turn him into– wait for it - a pizza! Petey’s parents instantly turn their child’s frown around with their goofy antics, and wouldn’t you know it, at the end of the story the sun comes out and Petey runs outside to play. In Pete’s A Pizza, Petey gets quite upset when a rain shower prevents him from going to play ball with his friends. I mean, there is so much to love about this goofy story, starting right with the title itself! Pete’s a Pizza, by William Steig, handles this situation in such a hilarious way, it is the perfect book to read when your little one has a case of the blues. We have all struggled with a whiny, grumpy kid who has plans derailed by some unforeseeable event, only to result in a horribly mopey child who can’t seem to find his way out of the doldrums.
