Bookroo's summary
Tired of being sidelined, a band of quirky animals is determined to break free from the mundane world of bedtime stories. They dream of epic adventures with yeti crabs in robo suits and babirusa princesses battling grape monsters. But their creative journey is threatened by an overly enthusiastic bunny neighbor who just won't leave them alone. Can they find their voice and tell the story they truly want? Dive into a whimsical world where imagination knows no bounds and discover what it means to find your tribe and embrace the wild tales within.
From the publisher
A group of misfits takes a stand against sweet, cuddly, boring stories in this picture book by the critically acclaimed author of the Snappsy the Alligator series, Julie Falatko.
The unpopular animals have had enough. They want to be in a picture book! Stories about mommy-loving kitties and cuddly bunnies at bedtime are boring. Wouldn’t you rather hear about yeti crabs in robo suits and fierce babirusa princesses who fight giant grape monsters?! This group of misfits has a unique story to tell, but they’ll never finish writing it if their over-eager bunny neighbor won’t GO AWAY!
Julie Falatko, critically acclaimed author of the Snappsy the Alligator books, brings her signature humor to this stand-alone picture book about finding your tribe and writing the stories you want to see, no matter how weird or wild they are!
