An awful creature with a terrible howl is loose in Mika's house, eating up dust bunnies and even Mika's socks! Join Mika on a charming journey of imagination and discovery in award-winning Polish creators Agata Loth-Ignaciuk and Berenika Kolomycka's Mika and the Howler.
Meet Mika! Mika is a young explorer who faces familiar-yet-not-fully known objects and obstacles around her house. Today's newest challenge? The "howler" that roams her living room and hallways sucking up dust bunnies and--even her socks! But the howler isn't as dangerous as it appears, and young Mika is soon brave enough to face it. The first in a series of books for the youngest comics readers, enjoy the sweet, simple, and delightful Mika and the Howler.Author Biography
