    Squish the amoeba neglects his homework, parents, friends and even his Super Amoeba comic books when he discovers the video game Mitosis. By the sister-and-brother team creators of Babymouse. Original.
  • Random House, Inc.
    Introducing Squish—a hilarious, action packed graphic novel series from the award-winning creators of Babymouse! Filled with superheroes, comics within comics, and gross-out science, Squish is perfect for fans of Dav Pilkey's Captain Underpants, Dan Gutman's Weird School, and Jarrett Krosoczka's Lunch Lady.

    Beep! Beep! Squish can't get enough of his awesome new video game Mitosis! (Mitosis is what happens when cells divide. Who says video games can't be educational?) In fact, he may even be obsessed! He plays at home . . . at school. . . even in his sleep! Are video games taking over Squish's life?! And can Squish's favorite comic book hero, Super Amoeba, stop the Creeping Black Mold that's taking over Small Pond? Find out in Squish #5: Game On—saving the world, one cell at a time!

    Yowza! You can draw comics, too! Look in the back to find out how to draw one of the Squish characters! Also includes instructions for a sensational science experiment you can do at home! Shazam!

    Here's what people are saying about everyone's favorite amoeba!

    New York Times:
    "An energetic, good-hearted escapade, one that young readers will enjoy."

    Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews:
    * "Hilarious. If ever a new series deserved to go viral, this one does."
     
    The Bulletin:
    "A perfect mix of writing that is simple enough for early readers but still remarkably snarky, clever, and entertaining. Kids will soak up the humor, tidbits of science instruction, and adventure."
