Description

We Have a Playdate is author/illustrator Frank W. Dormer’s hilarious and wacky graphic novel for the youngest readers about navigating friendships—and the playground.

The slide. The swings. The monkey bars. The seesaw.

Tuna, Noodle, and Margo each head for their favorite spots, like always. But today, there is a bear on the slide, and—gasp!—they won’t come down.

Together, this ragtag group of pals must tackle the playground, navigate friendships old and new, make it through bizarre mishaps, and sometimes get a little . . . kooky.

Featuring comic-style illustrations full of color, zany humor, and memorable characters, this accessible graphic novel reminds young new readers that any day spent with friends is a great day—and a learning experience!

“Slapstick humor and light mayhem abound . . . Bright, cheerful colors, uncomplicated backgrounds and paneling, and large, simple facial expressions make this a strong graphic novel for young independent readers. Silly fun.” —Kirkus Reviews
