Mac and Mac may be noodles with empty heads, but they have big ideas: building a fortress! This vibrantly colorful graphic novel for easy readers hits the nail on the head with comedy. The Noodlehead brothers are back from the library with a joke book, a fantasy novel, and a dream: to build their very own Fortress of Doom. If they can stop bickering for long enough. And if they can defend it from their wily friend Meatball. Jump right in with this fourth title in an easy-to-read graphic novel series about more than two hollow pastas trying to have fun. Award-winning storytellers Mitch Weiss and Martha Hamilton join Tedd Arnold, author of the Fly Guy series, to create a masterpiece of hilarity. This easy-to-read series, including the Geisel Honor book Noodleheads See the Future, is an accessible introduction to stories of fools, and a great next read for fans of the Fly Guy books. With short, funny chapters full of wordplay, jokes, and slapstick humor, the Noodleheads series is sure to delight. Based on traditional world folktales and stories of fools, the Noodleheads also encourage critical thinking, inviting kids to use their noodles- spotting the holes in the brothers' grand plans, and anticipating how things will go awry. An ILA-CBC Children's Choice!

What kid hasn't been ordered by their mother to invite someone to their birthday party, the dilemma that the book's protagonist faces. Of course Kate's protest of, "I can't invite Leo ... He shoots spitballs into my hair at recess" is brushed aside by her parents. But, worse comes when rumours fly through the school about Kate's pirate-themed party. Kate is worried that no one will want to come, and she is almost relieved when bossy Violet (who her mother also insisted that Kate invite) shows up. Her relief is short-lived, but you'll have to read the book to find out how the party turns out
