He learns that being himself and standing up for his friends is more important than being cool. The parallel story is of the super hero "Super Amoeba" and his struggles to do what is right for his friends and not just the things that will bring him attention and make him famous.Holm, Jennifer L. and Matthew. "Squish: Brave New Pond." Random House: New York, 2011. All I will say is that I LOVED the ending.I mean ... if you can't have it in real life why not have it in your fiction?Also I think it is hilarious how amoebas and paramecium can have such personality, facial expression, and body language. The author and illustrator sibling team must have the most fun writing these.I feel the need to go call one of my three brothers now.
What do You think about Brave New Pond (2011)?
I think that this boo is fun to read because it is a comic strip and I like comics.
