Publisher Description
Being part bubble and part cat can be one whole problem! BubbleCat may be fragile, but when DragonBear attacks, he'll have to try and make things right in this mixed-media tale about inner strength and one adorable bubble.
Based on the hit character from author Sean Charmatz's Instagram, BubbleCat is made out of a bubble, and he knows that one wrong move could make him go pop! at any moment. That means he has to always stay on the safest path – and don't even get him started on cacti. But when he crosses paths with the fearsome and spiky DragonBear, BubbleCat will have to embrace who he is and learn that, just maybe, he's stronger than he thought.
“A fun, inspiring story about overcoming fears and finding exceptional friendships... An easy addition to collections where Adam Rubin’s Dragons Love Tacos and Nancy Rose’s The Secret Life of Squirrels are popular.” – School Library Journal Reviews
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Fragile BubbleCat, of Instagram fame, learns to take risks in this quirky offering from Charmatz. Narrated by BubbleCat and accompanied by dialogue in speech balloons, the book—whose illustrations combine photographs and digital art, resulting in an animation-like vibe—opens with the bipedal translucent blue cat explaining, "There are so many things that could poke me, so I only ever stick to the safest path." When the cautious kitty, out for a walk, inadvertently angers spiky DragonBear (depicted with thorns, twigs, and sycamore pods), fireballs fly and a chase ensues until, on the edge of a cliff, the delicate feline discovers an unexpected strength, just in time. Charmatz's straightforward story delivers a familiar take on overcoming fear and taking chances, with a visually funny twist. Ages 4–8.
