Picture Book Review: Dragons Love Tacos





Title:  Dragons Love Tacos
Author:  Adam Rubin
Illustrator:  Daniel Salmieri
Publisher:  Dial Books for Young Readers, New York, NY 2012

Dragons love tacos.  Any kind of tacos:  beef tacos, chicken tacos, gigantic tacos and tiny little baby tacos.  They also love parties:  costume parties, pool parties, parties with accordions, and parties with charades.  It should come as no surprise then, that a dragon's favorite thing is a taco party!  (Just be sure to hide the salsa!)

This hilarious tale will have children ages 4 to 8 roaring with laughter.  The repetitious pattern of the story will help beginning readers catch on to the text, and the cadence of the tale allow it to be a great read aloud.  Just be sure the audience is able to view the awesome illustrations.
