Do you have to read Pizza and Taco in order?
There is no need to read these in order. Every book is a new, self-contained mix of two best friends and a goofy plan, with the same cast and jokes. The numbering follows publication, so book 1 shows how the friends act when they disagree and later books keep to the pattern.
What age is Pizza and Taco for?
Five to eight is the publisher's age for the books, not a reading level. The chapters are short and each speech bubble holds only a few words, so the series suits a child just starting to read a graphic novel on their own, and it also reads well aloud to younger children. Older readers may find it quick. We don't print reading-level scores: they belong to the companies that make them.

About book 1. The page count is from penguinrandomhouse.com, the colour from the publisher's page; the rest is Peabody's own note, never a score.
