The Know-Nothings
Humorous (fiction), Trade Book, Lexile 390
This book is about a group of friends, the Know-Nothings, who can't figure out what to eat. They think bananas wear funny coats, you can only get French fries in France, and noodles are too hard. The group of rhyming name friends, Boris, Morris, Doris, and Norris, don't seem to know much about food, but they know how to be good friends. This silly, simple story offers a humorous look at food and friendship.
