Pete's a Pizza by William Steig

My six year old rates Pete's a Pizza by William Steigas the second funniest book we have ever read. The plot follows a sad boy on a rainy day.  His father gets him laughing by making Pete into a pizza.

This dovetails with one of our family games.  I turn Tyler into a human burrito using a real blanket and pretend condiments and ingredients.

The story is wonderful and Steig's photos (also featured in many a New Yorker magazine) enhance Pete's a Pizza.  This is a must read for all.
