SQUISH BOOK AWARDS HOW TO
SQUISH BOOK AWARDS SERIES

The Holms have created a great new volume in this series with a friendship theme that many kids will connect with. I also like the little bits of science snuck in as well. I loved all the different notes that caption the different characters and events in the story. The green and white illustrations in this book add humor to this fast paced graphic novel. At first, Parasite offers to help Super Amoeba but Squish's favorite hero will have some tough decisions to make when the Parasite displays his true nature. Parallel to Squish's story is the story of comic book hero Super Amoeba dealing with the arrival of the Parasite, a hero Super Amoeba met several years earlier. When Basil stuns their swim coach, Squish will have to make a decision. Now Squish can't wait to get to camp even if he still won't try swimming, but that fun starts to turn dangerous as Basil pushes the limit further in the name of fun. Now Squish has someone to hang out with, someone who loves goofing off and pulling pranks. That comic is what leads him to making a new friend. A supposed bathroom trip results in several hours of reading his favorite comic. Even though his teacher tries to encourage him to try, Squish invents excuses not to get wet. While other little amoebas splash and swim, Squish sticks to pool ledge as he remembers what happened the last time he attempted to swim. The pool staff don't even have his name right! They think he is Squash not Squish. While the other amoebas at the pool are having super awesome fun, Squish is not. Squish reluctantly trudges off to swim camp. When forced to pick between swim camp and ballet camp, he chooses swimming only to find out his best friends Peggy and Pod are enrolled in ballet camp instead. Kids will soak up the humor, tidbits of science instruction, and adventure.' 'A perfect mix of writing that is simple enough for early readers but still remarkably snarky, clever, and entertaining. If ever a new series deserved to go viral, this one does.' 'An energetic, good-hearted escapade, one that young readers will enjoy.' Here's what people are saying about everyone's favorite amoeba!
