126. The Monster Mac and Cheese Party


Monster Mac and Cheese Party. Todd Parr. 2023. 40 pages. [Source: Review copy]

First sentence: You are invited to a monster mac and cheese party Friday night! Please bring your favorite mac and cheese. 

Premise/plot: Todd Parr's newest picture book stars monsters at a party, but not just any party--a mac and cheese party. Each monster guest brings his/her own 'favorite' mac and cheese. But what will happen when humans show up with BOXED mac and cheese?

My thoughts: I am not in the target audience for this one. I am not saying it won't be appealing for the target audience. Gross macaroni and cheeses might be absolutely hilarious for the right reader(s). The text is silly. The illustrations are bright, bold, colorful....and silly.
