About The Book

Go on hilarious adventures with a hot dog named Dog and a chicken nugget named Nugget in this collectible shrink-wrapped paperback boxed set with the first three books in the Level 2 Ready-to-Read Graphics series by Jason Tharp!

Nugget is a chicken nugget. Dog is a hot dog. They are friends, and they like ketchup. Their town of Gastropolis is a peaceful place…until a spicy mustard packet named Dijon Mustard tries to make everyone grumpy. Nugget and Dog want to help, so they start a K.E.T.C.H.U.P. club, standing for Kind, Empathetic, Thoughtful, Courageous, Helpful, Unique, and Powerful.

Can Nugget and Dog save the day with ketchup and kindness when faced with even more challenges like a festival in peril and a creepy camping trip? These books are full of silly jokes, funny scenes, misunderstood monsters, and sweetness, too.

Ready-to-Read Graphics books give readers the perfect introduction to the graphic novel format with easy-to-follow panels, speech bubbles with accessible vocabulary, and sequential storytelling that is spot-on for beginning readers. There’s even a how-to guide for reading graphic novels at the beginning of each book.

This laugh-out-loud boxed set includes:
All Ketchup, No Mustard!
Yum Fest is the Best!
S’more Than Meets the Eye!
