It's the WooPie Bake-Off — and best friends Wince, the Monster of Worry, and Twitch, the Monster of Frustration, both want to win. There's only one problem: the last time they baked together, it was a GREAT BAKE'TASTROPHE. So this time, they'll each bake alone. No sharing. No helping. No way. But when two BIG feelings end up in the same kitchen, things get a little…chaotic. Flying eggs. Spilled milk. One very messy kitchen.

Will this be a recipe for disaster, or will Wince and Twitch discover that some things — and some friends — work better together?

Why Readers Will Love It:

FIRST-EVER CHARACTER CROSSOVER: Marking nearly 20 years of the award-winning WorryWoo Monsters series, this is the franchise's first major crossover — Wince and Twitch, two fan-favorite monsters, share a story for the first time.

REAL-TIME EMOTIONAL LITERACY: The story tackles how anxiety and frustration overlap and fuel each other in the moment — a dynamic parents, educators, and child counselors see constantly but rarely see named on the page.

A KEEPSAKE THAT KEEPS GIVING: The dust jacket physically unfolds into a full classroom wall poster — a hands-on extension of the story, not just packaging.

WHIMSICAL, BOUNCING TEXT + VIBRANT WATERCOLOR ART: A read-aloud rhythm paired with expressive illustrations built for storytime.
