Bagel in Love

32 pp. | Sterling | January, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4549-2239-1 $16.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Helen Dardik. Bagel is roundly (get it?) rejected when he tries to find a partner for the Cherry Jubilee dance contest: Pretzel tells him his steps don't "cut the mustard," Croissant says his moves are "totally stale," etc. The baked-goods-centric puns don't serve the (bland) story as well as the story serves the puns, but humor abounds in the pink-frosted digital art.
