Description
“Will surely be a smash hit as a classroom read-aloud.” —Booklist (starred review)
Fans of Amelia Bedelia and Dory Fantasmagory will laugh themselves silly at Venus Washington’s misunderstanding about her grandma’s secret recipe in this first book in a hilarious new chapter book series!
Venus Washington and the Lasagna Drama introduces us to Venus Washington, who isn't quite sure why her parents named her that, considering she was born on Earth and has never been to Washington. One thing she does know is that her favourite food is cotton candy. But right after that, it’s definitely lasagna. Yummy, gooey, cheesy lasagna.
Grandma makes the best lasagna, and Venus desperately wants to know her super delicious recipe—until Grandpa accidentally lets it slip that the secret ingredient may be toes. Yuck! With the help of BFF Summer, WEF (Worst Enemy Forever) Winter, and the super-smart pet Hamsterburger, Venus sets out to save her family from the worst secret ingredient ever!
