Cloud Puppy-part puppy, part cloud, and all adorable-explores the immersive world of video games with her friends in this second book in a delightful graphic chapter book series that's Narwhal and Jelly meets The Amazing World of Gumball!
Cloud Puppy loves playing Valley of Runes, a cozy farming video game. But when Jack says that his favorite games are better, Cloud Puppy begins to feel badly about the things that she likes...until she learns that Jack has never even played Valley of Runes!
Cloud Puppy challenges her picky pal to a trade to share their favorite games. But Jack has other plans: he thinks it will be fun to surprise Cloud Puppy with a scary simulator. But it's his first time playing it, too, and it's more frightening than he thought! Can the friends find a game they both enjoy without getting too spooked?

Reviews / Votes
"This narrative boasts the high-energy cuteness that made the first volume sparkle; likewise, it also explores the challenges of childhood social dynamics...A sweet examination of social dynamics that will especially interest gamers." -- Kirkus Reviews * 1/1/25 * "The whimsical art and pastel color scheme add to the ever-present cute factor. And how can a series starring a floating puppy made of clouds and trailing rainbows be anything but adorable? This is a great option for fans of series like 'Glam Prix Racers.' This cheerful graphic novel will appeal to elementary age readers who enjoy playing video games and reading stories about friendship." -- School Library Journal * 1/31/25 *More details
