Let’s hear it for Plano-based Pizza Hut:
BOOK IT! is a reading program, sponsored by the pizza chain, directed towards children from pre-school to sixth grade, or ages four to twelve. It awards a free one-topping pizza if they are able to meet a monthly reading goal. Big Wig was promoted in the summer reading program Camp BOOK IT!
The book Big Wig is a “wonderful read-aloud [that] celebrates the universal childhood experience of dressing up and the confidence that comes with putting on a costume,” the reading program states on its website.
Yeah, it’s just about “putting on a costume”, of course.
Fucking groomers.
Here’s a thought: we have lots of corporate headquarters here in Plano, and others are lining up to come here. It would serve Pizza Hut right if the city, backed by the state*, revoked their business license — I bet that if publicized, a large majority of Plano parents would support the action.
*If this were Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis would be all over this idea.
