Summary
Summary
Now an animated show streaming on HBO Max!
From the New York Times bestselling, Eisner-winning creators of Babymouse, it's green . . . it's blobby . . . it's gross . . . it's SQUISH(!), a comic-book-loving amoeba whose adventures are perfect for fans of Dog Man, Captain Underpants, and My Weird School.
Uh-oh! Squish's friend Pod just hasn't been himself lately. One minute he's happy-dancing; the next he's sobbing in his soup. What's going on? (Hint- "mitosis" is the process that splits single-celled organisms. That's right, splits .) It is truly Pod vs. Pod-and may the best Pod, umm, win?
BONUS- Look in the back to find out how to draw one of the Squish characters and to get instructions for a SENSATIONAL science experiment you can do at home! SHAZAM!
Praise for Squish-
* " Hilarious. If ever a new series deserved to go viral, this one does." - Kirkus Reviews, Starred
"An energetic , good-hearted escapade, one that young readers will enjoy." - The New York Times
"Simple enough for early readers but still remarkably snarky, clever, and entertaining. " - The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Horn Book Review
In this eighth graphic novel, the amoeba's best pal, Pod, confuses everyone when he multiplies through mitosis. Meanwhile, in the latest Super Amoeba comic book (in black-and-white sequences), technology threatens to turn world-saving into a desk job. The usual appealing illustrations, charming text, likable characters, and well-integrated science will keep fans reading despite some plot holes (and the cavalier imprisonment of Pod's offspring).
