I can't believe I hadn't read this one. Whew! I have corrected that oversight. Great start to the Lunch Lady series.

I've been wanting to read the Lunch Lady series for awhile now. Just love the idea of a lunch lady with superhero-like powers. Unfortunately, lunch ladies are positioned so low on the totem pole of a school family in a child's eyes because they are usually the person they blame for the "awful" cafeteria meals. The great thing about this series is that the lunch lady is far from a normal, boring person... she's a bad ass!
I love the graphics in this book. It uses minimal colors, but that doesn't mean it's not full of details. It's drawn very well and is easy to read. Some graphic novels are hard to follow and are not as intuitive as others. Lunch Lady is a quick and fun read.
The best thing about the lunch lady character, in my opinion, are her gadgets. Every super hero needs a sidekick who invents super cool gadgets, right? My favorite is her spatula which turns into a mini-helicopter. So cool! Her milk-cam, spork phone and fish stick nunchucks are just a few of her other tools. A lunch lady who fights bad guys?! What more do you need?
I highly recommend Lunch Lady to anyone looking for a good graphic novel for MG readers. Highly entertaining and full of action, even for adults!

I was introduced to the Lunch Lady Series when I was at a Children's books workshop over the summer..As the instructor introduced this series, the librarian next to me told me that she owns this series..The librarian told me that the kids love this series, and she can't keep the books on the shelf!! I decided to buy the first three books for my library...All three books went to the first class that had a chance to check out the books. The three girls who had the books decided to sit together..and all I heard them do is giggle and talk about the book!! They absolutely loved the books!!! One even said "I can't believe what these friggen lunch ladies did!!!" I was hysterical!!!

So this was one of the cutest books I have ever read. It was for my ENG 204 class this past semester. A majority of my classmates did not like the book, but I enjoyed it very much. I am not normally a comic person, but it meant a lot to my ENG professor, so I went into it with an open mind and ended up loving it!
