Exciting and unexpected adventures await Anders and his friends when they go camping near a volcano, in this lively story told in cartoons from the creator of Anders and the Comet.
Anders is on holiday again, flying everywhere with his pet beetle, Skip. Together with his friends Bernie and Eden, he builds cubby houses, digs ponds, and attends Whump class.
But when the trio heads off to Camp Canvas at Mount Tremble, they make new friends and discover new things about themselves. That's just as well, because they'll need all their courage and creativity when Mount Tremble--an "extinct" volcano--starts to rumble.
Praise for Anders and the Comet: "Imaginative and entertaining" - Magpies "A delightful graphic novel" - Good Reading "A sweet, funny graphic novel that champions friendship, creativity, and imagination... perfect for comic fans or reluctant readers" - Readings
