Dragons Love Tacos (original 2012; edition 2012)

The irony of combining something as mundane as tacos with something as outlandish as dragons makes this book a masterpiece. Dragons really love tacos (who doesn't?), but dragons hate one certain topping: spice! One might imagine what could happen when spice meets a fire-breathing dragon's lungs...

The funny illustrations and anecdotes about dragon hobbies are engaging and endearing. I love this book!

Delightfully silly. Good lead in to talking about what we do and do not like on our tacos! ( )

I would use this book as a fun read aloud to draw students back in on a day when they are all over the place ( )

I love a great picture book. This is a GREAT picture book. Dragons tacos = win. ( )

Dragons love tacos. They love chicken tacos, beef tacos, great big tacos, and teeny tiny tacos. So if you want to lure a bunch of dragons to your party, you should definitely serve tacos. Buckets and buckets of tacos. Unfortunately, where there are tacos, there is also salsa. And if a dragon accidentally eats spicy salsa . . . oh, boy. You're in red-hot trouble.
