Sasspants, Hamisher, and company have never had it so good. Now that Mr. Venezi’s Pets and Stuff doesn’t actually sell pets, everybody has time to explore other interests. There’s scuba diving in the fish tank with the Steves, theatrical performances with the mice, and walrus toothbrushes and aardvark neckties for everyone! It’s not all good times, though. Mr. Venezi’s been mistaking his bills for fan mail and a dragon may have moved into the shop. Can Sasspants and Hamisher ensure that a “happily ever after” is in store for the animals, Mr. Venezi, Viola…and even that nice lady from the bookshop next door?

Reviews

Kirkus Reviews

“Venable caps her series of graphic novels for young readers with a light mystery readers won’t have any trouble solving. As usual, the fun is in the interaction of the characters: clueless Mr. Venezi, enthusiastic Hamisher and the smartest pig in the room—Sasspants. Yue’s bright, colorful, expressive panels extend the sly humor (check out the mouse with Princess Leia hair) and boost the giggles.” —Kirkus Reviews
