The Talent Show

The second book in a Kawaii picture book series featuring cute animal characters and playful stories.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
Puddle (a frog) and Lettuce (a snail) are best friends. They love doing everything together.

When the opportunity arises to perform in a talent show, Puddle can't wait. But Lettuce is a little unsure about being in the spotlight. The pair must figure out a way to support each other, especially when disaster strikes and Puddle loses his voice on the night of the performance! Can friendship (and a little bravery) save the day?

With simple text and bright layouts, the series is perfect for children transitioning from board books.

Also available: Puddle Lettuce: The Treehouse
