The Cafe Competition by Nicola Colton

funny lighthearted medium-paced

5.0

Jasper the Cat and Scruff the Dog have their own restaurant with their special signature dish, a cheese sandwich. When a fancy restaurant opens across the street, the recipe for their signature dish is mysteriously stolen, and the fancy restaurant announces that they will be serving a special cheese sandwich! How can Jasper and Scruff compete with the fanciness? Jasper comes up with a whole new menu, hoping to impress the food critics. But their new menu is a disaster! Jasper and Scruff learn that they can count on their loyal costumers to keep their restaurant afloat.

This is such a fun book! Jasper and Scruff are hilarious! I loved all the twists and turns of the plot, and how the two friends are resilient and resourceful through every circumstance. There are a few paragraphs of text on each page, making this the perfect type of book for children who are learning to read small chapter books on their own.

The illustrations are really cute and I love the designs for all the animals characters! Every page is so colorful.
