Pig the Pug meets Pete the Cat in this hilarious new series starring a grumpy little toad with a big attitude. From the mind of master humorist Jim Benton!

Tot the Toad is just like every grouchy kid: he doesn't want to clean up after himself, or go to bed, or do his homework. He hates loud noises, new situations, and anything that throws off his routine. And tonight, he definitely doesn't want to eat dinner! Relatable to picky kids and annoyed parents alike, this contrarian amphibian will turn even the biggest frowns upside down.

Jim Benton is known for creating lovably grumpy characters like Catwad, Franny K. Stein, and Jamie Kelly (Dear Dumb Diary). Now he's bringing his trademark humor and illustrations to this hilarious new picture book!

Felix Powell is back! After his brief stint as a dog, Felix thinks his troubles with magical animal transformation are over. . . until a mysterious bit of magic turns him into a squirrel.

Kirkus, Starred Review: "A playful and timely tale that teaches kids how to spot fearmongering and follow evidence."

Jibberjack, Fibberjack is a clever whodunit about thinking for yourself and asking better questions.

When a mysterious creature starts scaring the chatty town of Rumorridge, only Frida asks more questions. With her detective hat, trusty notebook, and a nose for nonsense, she's sure to crack the town's monster mystery.

Things quickly get serious when strange footprints appear and the town's prized pigs go missing. Questionable monster traps and the mayor's new rules only add to everyone's nervousness.

But when smelly clues mix with stinky lies, Frida begins putting the pieces together and builds a clever trap of her own.

A gentle introduction to the concept of fear-mongering for kids ages 4-8 who love asking MANY questions.
