The Princess in Black meets Monsters, Inc. in this zany, heartwarming series for early readers 4 to 8 years old!

Sparkly, silly, and perfect for early readers, Corey Ann Haydu and Anne Appert’s winning series tackles life’s first big changes with whimsy and heart.

In GlumbleGlibble, one ritual is certain: when something hard happens, it’s called a Tricky Turnaround. And when it does, a Happy Helpful Human from the “real” world will help you through it.

But when Zoomi’s best friend moves away and Zoe arrives, she doesn’t seem very happy. Or helpful. Or excited about the party Zoomi threw for her—complete with toothbrushes and tuba music. In fact, Zoe may be in a Tricky Turnaround of her own. Can Zoomi and Zoe help each other with the trickiest parts of growing up, like saying goodbye to friends and making new ones?

“This wholly magical, wholly child-centered story of GlumbleGlibblers and the humans who love them reads like rolling down a rainbow mud slide to find a picnic waiting at the bottom. With cake, of course.”—Liz Garton Scanlon, author of the Bibsy Cross series
