Competitive eating vies with family expectations in a funny, heartfelt novel for middle-grade readers by National Book Award winner Pete Hautman.

David can eat an entire sixteen-inch pepperoni pizza in four minutes and thirty-six seconds. Not bad. But he knows he can do better. In fact, he'll have to do better: he's going to compete in the Super Pigorino Bowl, the world's greatest pizza-eating contest, and he has to win it, because he borrowed his mom's credit card and accidentally spent $2,000 on it. So he really needs that prize money. Like, yesterday. As if training to be a competitive eater weren't enough, he's also got to keep an eye on his little brother, Mal (who, if the family believed in labels, would be labeled autistic, but they don't, so they just label him Mal). And don't even get started on the new weirdness going on between his two best friends, Cyn and HeyMan. Master talent Pete Hautman has cooked up a rich narrative shot through with equal parts humor and tenderness, and the result is a middle-grade novel too delicious to put down.

Color: White, Size: 9 inch
These are my favorite plates to use for catering parties. Great value, they are sturdy and look high end. Best of all they are environmentally friendly as they are made from a by product and they are compostable.

Great value and great biodegradable plates for snacks or lods
Size: 6", Size: 6"
These plates were exactly what I was looking for! These 6" plates are smaller ones, so if you need larger ones, then get the 8" ones:)

Great value for very sturdy, leak free plates
Size: 6"
Really like these plates! They had the best price per plate & come in a large quantity which is a huge plus for me. We use them to feed our cats wet food & sometimes water & the liquids have never leaked through the plates They are the perfect size for feeding, 1 plate will easily hold a can of cat food. They are very sturdy & don't slide across the floor while the cats are eating off them.
