An anxious squirrel refuses to leave his nut tree, keeping an emergency kit ready for tarantulas, sharks and killer bees — until an accident finally knocks him right out of it.
A forgetful young possum wanders into the swamp despite his mama's warnings, and must play dead again and again to survive whatever creature might be the legendary loup-garou.
A giant cat terrorizes the rodent citizens of Mousopolis in this King Kong spoof — someone brave and clever will need to stop the massive meowing menace before it's too late.
A boy who wants everything for Christmas gets a very hungry pet dinosaur instead — and when the dino eats up the whole holiday, it all has to come out somewhere.

Warned to fear the Big Bad Mouse, the Gruffalo's curious child sneaks into the deep dark wood to hunt him down — only to spot the mouse and a mysterious giant shadow looming close behind.

A pigeon finds a hot dog he desperately wants all to himself, but a sly, hungry duckling shows up wanting a bite — so whose bird brain wins?
A Siamese kitten with an overactive imagination transforms into El Skippito, a mask-and-cape sword-fighter, ready to take on banditos and a bad bumble-beeto to save the day.
A sound-making wonder named Mr. Brown moos like a cow, hoos like an owl, buzzes like a bee, and even chews gum like a grum-grumming hippo, daring readers to make every noise right along with him.
Dragons love tacos more than anything, so a party planner throws them a giant taco party — but forgets that spicy salsa turns dragons into fire-breathing disasters.
