Donut Feed the Squirrels - (Norma and Belly) by Mika Song (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Belly and Norma are the best of squirrels--or so they think. After discovering donuts for the first time, they are determined to get some for themselves, even if they have to outsmart the food truck driver to do it"--

Book Synopsis

Two squirrel best friends meet their match: a donut food truck! This Eisner-nominated hilarious young graphic novel is perfect for fans of Narwhal: Unicorn of the Sea and anyone who would do ANYTHING for a donut.

Norma and Belly would really really really really really like a donut.

With a burned breakfast and a cranky donut seller at the local food truck, they may be stuck with only nuts to eat . . . unless they can steal the biggest, most delicious donut of their tiny lives!

Mika Song gives readers something to laugh at as these squirrels try their hardest to get some donuts while just about everything goes wrong. A fun "donut caper" graphic novel that focuses on madcap action, problem-solving, and the power of working together.

"I'm nuts for these sweet and silly squirrels." -- Ben Clanton, author of Narwhal and Jelly
