"Narwhal and Jelly are back and Narwhal has a new obsession . . . peanut butter! He's so obsessed he even wants to change his name to . . . that's right . . . Peanut Butter! Ever-sensible Jelly isn't so sure that's the best idea, but is all for Narwhal trying new things (instead of just eating waffles all the time, no matter how delicious waffles are). In this third book, Narwhal and Jelly star in three new stories about trying new things, favorite foods and accepting who we are. Always funny and never didactic, this underwater duo charms again through their powerful combination of positive thinking, imagination and joyfulness" --

I received this book as an ARC and am new to the series. But, oh man this book has made me a believer. The book is just adorable. Not adorable in the annoying cutesy fart way, but adorable in an uncluttered visually appealing way. This book, and I would have to assume series seems like it would launch a 1000 memes for adults and still be silly and approachable for young readers. A very uncommon combination in books. I enjoyed the lighthearted tone, the graphics, and occasional interesting science fact thrown in. (Good for trivia night as an adult.) I would highly recommend this novel to the 2nd-5th grade reader.
As a side note, I can definitely empathize with Narwhal's obsession with his new favorite food. I too find myself feeling like Narwhal. You may call me Madam von peanut.
