Publisher's Weekly Review
When the world runs out of tacos, there's only one thing to do: go back in time, "save a handful of tacos, plant them in the ground, and grow taco trees so we never run out of tacos again." Fans of Dragons Love Tacos won't be surprised that this expedition doesn't go terribly smoothly: there are several spicy-salsa-triggered fire-breathing incidents, as well as pit stops in timelines where dragons love diapers and giant tacos love dragons. Are the time jumps always easy to track? Not really, but this sequel's dialed-up energy and absurdity remain a tasty-and very funny-combination. Ages 3-5. Author's agent: Jennifer Joel, ICM. Illustrator's agent: Rebecca Sherman, Writers House. (May) © Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
Horn Book Review
When a "sudden exhaustion of taco supplies" leaves the dragons bereft, the narrator tries (and repeatedly fails) to set a time machine back to the last taco party (Dragons Love Tacos). Mishaps involve cavemen, diapers, and (of course) spicy salsa. As in this book's predecessor, the tongue-in-cheek, conversational narrative's humor wears thin by book's end, but kids will devour Salmieri's slapstick illustrations of the hangry chaos.

Kirkus Review
As if the fiery disaster of the first outing (2012) weren't bad enough, news that the world's entire supply of tacos has been used up leaves not just the dragons dismayed.Fortunately, there's a time machine in the garage, so it might be possible to bring new seed stock for taco trees (didn't you know?) from the past. Unfortunately, said device is hard to calibrate first they undershoot back to the previous volume's spicy-salsa-fueled holocaust and then overshoot to a similar catastrophe in prehistoric times. Subsequent ventures into alternate space-time continua lead to universes where dragons lovediapers ("That's not right"), and tacos chow down on dragons ("Weird, but closer!"). Then, when the chunky white lad leading the draconic expedition does finally get it right, only the taco in his lap survives the trip back to the present. That's enough for a happy ending, though, as Salmieri shows in the last of his nave-style cartoon scenes with a taco party in which dragons and diversely hued figures (some recognizable) from various historical and fantasy realms mingle. "After all," as Rubin puts it, "dragons love diapers. I mean, tacos. Dragons love tacos. / Heck, everyone loves tacos." Most young readers, even those in diapers, would agree.

Booklist Review
Brace yourselves, readers, for this sequel to the best-selling Dragons Love Tacos (2012) begins on a tragic note. There is a taco shortage! The despair is palpable, as dragons sprawl on the ground with tears streaming from their eyes. Moved by the dragons' plight, Robbie and his canine pal get the idea to travel back in time to the very celebration captured in the first book. Once there, they'll grab some tacos, return to the present, and plant them for a plentiful taco harvest this tasty treat grows on trees, don't you know so that the dragons will never run out again. As luck would have it, there's an old time machine in Robbie's garage, but the mission isn't as simple as it seems. Miscalculations and machine malfunctions lead to riotous trips through space-time that will leave kids cackling. Old gags from the first book are revisited, and new ones are introduced, with the book's slight story getting a boost from Salmieri's comical, childlike illustrations. A ridiculous romp to be sure, but youngsters will eat it up.--Smith, Julia Copyright 2017 Booklist
