Basically these guys have our number. That are clever books that don't get old very quickly. Press here is also very good, though they have destroyed it like so many books before.

shhhhhhhhhh

Reading through the reviews, the parents tended to find the book inappropriate because it was promoting that children acting secretive is fun and that stealing is okay.

Just a couple of reviews:
Secret Keeping & Stealing, February 4, 2015
>By Jen Bee
This review is from: Secret Pizza Party (Hardcover)
I borrowed this from the library because of the cute illustrations. The book was neither fun nor cute. I just read it to my almost 4 year old and cringed as I read: "When you make something secret, you make it special." Yeah, that's not what I want to teach my child. It sounds like something a pedophile would say to their victim.

My kid, like most, loves pizza. My household is a big fan of Adam Rubin and Daniel Salmieri books, but I am not digging this one. Other people have commented on the message, and I'm feeling the same way. Our main character steals a pizza and the whole time, we're telling the reader that keeping secrets make things more fun. I'm pretty sure any children's psychologist would recommend avoiding this book. I don't think at any point, a child should be told that keeping a secret is ok, let alone "make it special".

We love "Dragons Love Tacos" and the "Those Darn Squirrels" series at our house so we anxiously awaited the release of "Secret Pizza Party." Unfortunately, after the first read, I quietly took it off our bookshelf. The book's graphics are lively and engaging and the tone is enthusiastic and fun to read, but I didn't like that we were supposed to cheer for the raccoon to steal pizza and get away with it. Even if I overlooked the stealing element of the story, I was very unsettled by the book's characterization of secrets to young children - "When you make something secret, you make it special." I probably watched too many after school specials growing up, but it just didn't sit well with me. So, we will continue to enjoy the dragons and the squirrels, but will let the raccoon sit it out.

I love love love book contests. If it can be for your child get this one if I win: secret pizza party. Since we love pizza in this house!

If not this one for myself historical fiction
