Love Barb the Brave so am very much looking forward to reading this #GraphicNovel for younger readers from Dan & Jason. Huge thanks to @dannieprice.bsky.social @rocktheboatnews.bsky.social for sending Blue, Barry & Pancakes: Mount Choco Meltdown and matching stickers and bookmarks. Out 03/07.
The book, stickers and bookmarks. The book’s cover shows the 3 characters - a large yellow rabbit, frog and worm - on a mountain side.

An excellent list of new books here and great to see the new Blue, Barry & Pancakes: Escape from Balloonia by @danandjason.bsky.social on this list too.

Blue, Barry & Pancakes 'delivers another wild ride for that 5+ year olds and less confident readers will love.'
