The humble pie / written by Jory John ; illustrated by Pete Oswald.

John, Jory, (author.). Oswald, Pete, (artist.).

Summary:

I'm a pie. A humble pie. And that's no lie. The Humble Pie likes to give others the spotlight. Aw, shucks!--they deserve it! But when he's paired with his best friend, Jake the Cake, for a school project, he soon realizes that staying in the shadows isn't always as sweet as pie. Readers of all ages will laugh along as their new pie pal discovers that letting your voice be heard always takes the cake!
