Description
Hornbeam and his friends embark on three new larger-than-life adventures in the third book in the Hornbeam series, from the creators of the Gooseberry Park, Motor Mouse, and Mr. Putter and Tabby books! Hornbeam the moose, Eureka the goose, Cuddy the bull, and Adorabelle the skunk are the best of friends through thick and thin. Most especially when there's fun to be had! In "Swap Meet," Hornbeam and Eureka eagerly attend their favorite yearly event: an item exchange! In "Blue Team," the sporty Adorabelle asks Hornbeam to join her volleyball game, but his antlers end up tangled in the net! In "Adventure World," it's Cuddy's birthday, and the whole gang gets together to celebrate at the Adventure World Party Place.

Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
Hornbeam belongs in the company of Rylant's beloved previous series for emerging readers, like Henry and Mudge and Mr. Putter and Tabby. . . . for sheer enjoyment, don't let the kids in your orbit miss out on Hornbeam the moose.--School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW "10/1/25"
Like previous installments, this one features plenty of humor, but friendship is at the heart of this tender tale. . . . a short and sweet pick for newly independent readers.--Kirkus "06/01/2025"
