Lots of fun. You'll never look at your lunch lady the same way again, because she might just have Chicken Nugget bombs stashed away in her apron/cape!

Cauliflower! Why did I wait so long to pick these up? Simple spy stories make quick, funny reads. I love all the lunch lady's gadgets!

Thin story with an occasional humorous food/spy-related device. Atrocious artwork in hideous two-color panels.

Do you know what the Lunch Lady does when she's not serving sloppy joes? A few curious kids discover that their lunch lady not only cooks, she also fights crime.
8 year old boy thought this book was hilarious and can't wait to read the next one.
Good for ages 7 and up.

Three friends, Hector, Terrence, and Dee have always wondered about their lunch lady. Something always seemed off. But never in their wildest dreams could they imagine that she was superhero/secret agent with a lair full of gadgets.

Then one day, their favourite math teacher get sick and is replaced by someone who is too good to be true. Because he is a cyborg. Can the Lunch Lady stop the Cyborg Substitutes sinister plan to replace all the teachers with robots before it's too late?

Cute graphic novel that is perfect for the Captain Underpants fans out there.

Again, I'm not a huge fan of the graphic novel genre ... just not my thing, but I know it's popular with a lot of students and I think the ones who like graphic novels would like this.
