The Glorkian Warrior Delivers a Pizza by Jame Kochalka –OPTIONAL


Kochalka, James The Glorkian Warrior Delivers a Pizza 112 pgs. First Second, 2014. $12.99 Content: Language: G (0 swears); Mature Content: G Violence: G. GRAPHIC NOVEL
The adventures of an alien and his laser shooting talking backpack. When the pair get a wrong number call to order a pizza, the Glorkian warrior decides to make the delivery. They snag a half eaten pizza from the fridge and head out. The backpack doesn’t think it’s a great idea, and it does its best to keep his friend out of trouble!
This is a fun and goofy book that reluctant readers will adore. The pages are large, bright, and colorful. I would rather a student read this than captain underpants, but it doesn’t quite meet my school library graphic novel criteria of a quality story and top notch artwork.
