The King's Taster by Kenneth Oppel

5.0

Max is one lucky dog. His owner is a superb chef, and Max's duty is to taste the delicious food that he prepares before it's presented to the king. When a new king turns out to be a picky eater, Max and the cook travel the world in search of tempting recipes to wow him. Who could refuse french fries, pizza, or chili tacos? The new king, that's who! After refusing three meals in a row, the new king is after the cook's head. Can Max sniff out the reason for the king's lack of appetite, or will he be out of a job for good?
