Who is the Lunch Lady? That
is the questions that elementary students Hector, Terrence, and Dee are
asking themselves. They are the Breakfast Bunch, always eating their
breakfast at school before school starts. They wonder what the two lunch
ladies, Lunch Lady and Betty, do when they aren't at work.
One day, the
kid's favorite teacher, Mr. O'Connell, does not show up at school and
they have a new substitute named Mr. Pasteur. Mr. Pasteur gives the
students a lot of work to do and always has a keen eye on them. The kids
don't like him very much. The science teacher, Mr. Edison, is now the
most popular since Mr. O'Connell is out. Lunch Lady is instantly
suspicious of Mr. Pasteur because Mr. O' Connell has not missed a day of
school in twenty years.
Lunch Lady and Betty go down the secret
passageway to the Boiler Room where they have all of their high-tech
equipment, like Batman and Robin in their Batcave. As Lunch Lady follows
Mr. Pasteur home one day, Hector, Terrence, and Dee hop on their bikes
and chase after Lunch Lady, who rides a moped. Meanwhile, in the Boiler
Room, Betty has finally finished analyzing one of Mr. Pasteur's hairs
and discovers that he is a cyborg, part robot and part human.
Just as
the Lunch Lady is about to confront the cyborg, the three kids get
captured by even more cyborgs. Will Lurch Lady be able to stop all the
cyborgs and rescue Hector, Terrence, and Dee without the kids getting
hurt?
Lunch Lady and the Cyborg
Substitute is the first book in the Lunch Lady series and is written
and drawn by Jarrett J. Krosoczka. This humorous book is a graphic novel
about a lunch lady at an elementary school fighting crime. This book is
intended for girls ages 7 to 10.
