The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world.

Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Story
Tommy and his sister Annika have a new neighbor, and her name is Pippi Longstocking.

Whether Pippi's scrubbing her floors, doing arithmetic or stirring things up at a fancy tea party, her flair for the outrageous always seems to lead to another adventure.

Story
Before Shrek made it big on the silver screen, there was William Steig's Shrek!, a book about an ordinary ogre who leaves his swampy childhood home to go out and see the world. Ordinary, that is, if a foul and hideous being who ends up marrying the most stunningly ugly princess on the planet is what you consider ordinary.

Didn’t Love the Narration
We love Kevin Henkes and all the Penny books but I didn’t love Cynthia Nixon’s narration. She speaks very very slowly and for some reason her voice for a little mouse sounds like a nasally old lady?!? It’s weird and sullen.
