Synopsis

Pete's father starts kneading the dough. Next, some oil is generously applied. (Its really water.) And then some tomatoes. (They're really checkers.) When the dough gets tickled, it laughs like crazy.

New York Times Book Review - Signe Wilkinson

. . .Pete's a Pizza must be added to the strategic bedside shelf of parenting advice.
