About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling like an outsider or struggling with a big change they cannot control, such as a move or a local development project. This humorous chapter book follows a group of lovable monsters who must band together when a greedy developer tries to turn their radioactive swamp home into a squeaky-clean water park. It is a lighthearted way to discuss the importance of standing up for your community and finding value in places others might find messy. While the setting is a radioactive swamp, the tone is purely comedic and geared toward the 7 to 10 age range. It balances silliness with a genuine message about justice and teamwork. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's desire to protect their personal space, making it an excellent choice for kids who enjoy gross-out humor but benefit from stories about finding where you belong.
