Dude Fiery and the Giant Hot Dog: A Heartwarming Parody of the World’s Favorite Tastemaker. This Story is published by Connie D. Mentz and this children’s book is illustrated by Mike Bech.
David and I’ve watched Guy Fierie Dinner’s Drive-Inns and Dives as well as Guys Grocery Cames forever it seems. Charlie loves his red car he is always driving. Which is why I was excited to be able to read Dude Fiery and the Giant Hot Dog: A Heartwarming Parody of the World’s Favorite Tastemaker in person.
Not only that David loves Hot Dogs and would eat them 24/7 365 days a year. Now, before you ask yes, David and I also enjoy Hot Dogs and with Charlie taking a cooking class for Homeschool this year I knew Dude Fiery and the Giant Hot Dog: A Heartwarming Parody of the World’s Favorite Tastemaker would be fun to read.
I sat down this morning with my book and began to flip through the pages when Charlie can and sat beside me. We had fun looking at all of the pictures discussing what we say and why we would like to have a Hot Dog like this one made by Dude Fiery. Wouldn’t you like to have one of these Hot Dogs as well?
Charlie and I enjoyed learning what Dude Fiery is including a classic rock fan just like David and I are. We learned he is like Charlie and loves over the top bold flavors which I can’t have. Can you? Charlie and I loved following along as he created the Hot Dog then took the Hot Dog to the Taste Village which Charlie and I would have liked to visit. Would you want to come with us on this Homeschool Field Trip? This wasn’t the right place for the Hot Dog. Guy Fiery continued on his journey. I like how he took his Hot Dog out into the Community which has led to a new Homeschool lesson for Charlie.
Guy kept going because he knew he needed to stop the Chancellor of Taste a beige or bland guy which you will find out in the story. As you continue to read this story it touches on LGBTQIA which would have made a friend of mine refuse to read this book because of her believes. As for me I don’t believe in this because it isn’t the way I was brought of up.
Everyone has a right to their own way to live and to fall in LOVE With whomever so this wouldn’t stop me from reading this book, but I might not show it with everyone I know. This did give me a chance to talk to Charlie about LGBTQIA with Charlie and his friends and prepare him before sitting down to read this story.
I love how Guy filled up the buildings and I wish he could come to Haltom City and help us fill all the empty buildings in our Town. As well as a Food Festival with Hot Dogs which we also don’t have. Guy could put together a Rad Food Truck and come park it in our city bringing out Town together. Getting families outside and off electronics.
You must read Dude Fiery and the Giant Hot Dog: A Heartwarming Parody of the World’s Favorite Tastemaker as soon as possible to see what Bartholomeu Bland does to Guys booth and what happens. If you have children, love Food or are a fan of Guy then you need to read this new children’s book asap and don’t forget adults will also enjoy this book just as much as children do.
Preview:
Meet Dude Fiery—a fictional chef with a passion for tasty food, good deeds, and flame-printed shirts—and join him on a hilarious and charming adventure to become the leader of Taste Village in this heartfelt tribute to the world’s greatest celebrity chef.
Talented chef Dude Fiery takes the bus to Taste Village in the hopes of bringing his Giant Hot Dog Special to the nicest restaurant in town. But when Dude is turned away because of his sunglasses and “too casual” diner-inspired food, he decides to bring his taste powers to the people.
About:
With his flavor-packed hot dogs, Dude redefines what taste really means to the locals and restaurateurs of Taste Village. Along the way, he does good deeds like supporting small businesses, officiating LGBTQIA+ Weddings, and donating food to schools. The town soon learns they’ve misjudged Dude and that he is, in fact, an all-around awesome guy.
A perfect gift for Food Network devotees, celebrity chef fans, and many chef-themed bachelorette parties, this funny book offers two very important life lessons: always follow your tastebuds and don’t judge a book by its frosted tips.
