Publisher Summary

In a rugged northern village, there lived a brave Viking warrior named Gunnar. Deep down, Gunnar had a secret: He felt something was missing from his life.During a voyage to a southern town, Gunnar’s destiny took a turn when he smelled a delicious aroma coming from an empty cabin. Inside, he discovered a wonderful treat that completely overwhelmed him: Pizza! When he returned home, Gunnar tried to recreate the recipe. His first Viking pizza was born, and it was … a disaster.He tried again and again until he perfected his recipe. He couldn’t wait to share it with his fellow villagers. As demand for his pizza grew, Gunnar faced a tough decision. Should he continue to swing his sword and seek adventure, or should he pursue his true passion in the kitchen? Tag along to see if Gunnar follows his dreams and lives deliciously ever after.”A stylish picture book from Vaisberg about finding one’s true calling–one pie at a time.” – Publishers Weekly”A delight … the art is fantastic.” – Youth Services Book Review”Ebullient art is the true star of the show … Hearty lessons in perseverance.” – Kirkus Reviews”In a nice change of pace from more serious storylines, Gunnar’s hardships in the quest for a delicious pizza for himself and for his community are wonderfully presented and entertaining.” – School Library Journal”[A] humorous tale.” – The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
