About this book

The Super Happy Magic Forest is once again thrown into disruption and chaos when Blossom the unicorn accidentally releases the super slug of doom from his hibernation beneath an ordinary rock. Can our five reluctant heroes -- Hoofius, Blossom, Twinkle, Trevor, and Herbert -- once again save their beloved forest from slimy, sludgy, yucky evil? We sure hope so. . .

A delightful, riotous, laugh-out-loud follow-up to the 2016 BCCB Blue Ribbon Award Winner and 2016 Booklist Editors' Choice, Super Happy Magic Forest. Lovers of silliness, fantasy, and lots and lots of slime won't get enough of it!

Reviews

Praise for Super Slug of Doom:

"In keeping with the jocular tone and Adventure Time aesthetic of the first book, busy illustrations are wonderfully overrun with magical creatures spouting one-liners and delightfully bad jokes and puns. The heroes' epic quest is a natural fit for kids' silly sides and party-animal instincts." --Booklist

"Elementary-age kids who enjoy a good quest will love this parody with its unusual heroes and added layers of fun." -- School Library Journal


Praise for Super Happy Magic Forest

* "Long's illustrations are packed to the gills with magical creatures and goofy details, and readers will pore over them with glee. With no agenda other than taking whimsical fun to the max, kids will flock to this super-duper-smiley adventure."-- Booklist Starred Review

* "Readers and almost-readers will pore over this, and they'll find a new joke every time." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Starred Review

"In this debut picture book, Long fills nearly every page with details that will keep young readers engaged and interested. . . . For Where's Waldo? graduates who are ready for heavy-duty irony" -- Kirkus
