About the Book
An ogre turns out to be the best neighbor ever in this punny easy reader comic.
A family gets a surprise when a fun-loving ogre moves in next door and helps a sister bond with her screen-obsessed brother.
Ollie is so absorbed in the video game Smash Tower that he doesn’t notice that his sister and an ogre named Tim have emptied his room and constructed an obstacle course that mirrors the levels of the game in the yard. But a tell-tale red string leads him to the challenges. This comic is perfect for re-introducing kids to the fun of in-person play.
