Description
From the author of The Tea Dragon Society comes
Dewdrop, the delightful children's tale of an adorable axolotl who cheers on his
underwater friends as they each bring their talents to the pond's sports
fair!
Dewdrop is an easygoing, gentle axolotl
who enjoys naps, worm pie, and cheerleading. When the yearly sports fair nears,
he and his friends-Mia the weightlifting turtle, Newman the musical newt, and
three minnows who love to cook-get ready to showcase their skills to the whole
pond! However, as the day of the fair gets closer, Dewdrop's friends can't help
putting pressure on themselves to be the best. It's up to Dewdrop to remind them
how to be mindful, go at their own pace, and find joy in their own
achievements.

Reviews / Votes
"Playful, friendly, goodhearted fun." * Kirkus * "A sweet, early age graphic novel-style tale with an encouraging message." * School Library Journal * "This had me at adorable axolotl. It had me again with O'Neill's glorious artwork. And it had me again again (that's not even English but forgive me!) with its gentle lessons about conservation and kindness. It's just so lovely."* Book Riot *
