An original, offbeat and giggle-inducing take on conquering fears from the New York Times best-selling team.

An ordinary bubble may seem pretty harmless to you.

To the monsters of La La Land, however, a fragile, shimmering bubble is an object of terror, and when the frightening habits of bubbles are detailed by a fear-mongering monster, Yerbert, Froofle and Wumpus run away and cry. But with encouragement from the narrator and from readers the three learn to confront their fears and triumph over the bubbles! “Rubin and Salmieri are two of the weirdest, funniest guys working in kids’ lit today.” Publishers Weekly
