About the Book

“Chock-full of heart and laughs.” —Publishers Weekly

The League of Littles defends youngest siblings around the globe. But are three eager trainees ready for their first mission—finding a missing pet? A hilarious, action-packed young middle grade graphic novel about friendship, school, and siblings for fans of the Bad Guys and Babymouse.

From an ordinary school, in an ordinary town, a distress signal is sent. Help me, League of Littles, you’re my only hope!

The League of Littles is an international organization that protects and supports the needs of youngest siblings—and trainees Lexi, Mo, and Eli are finally ready for their first mission. Another student at their elementary school has lost her big sister’s hamster, Chester, after she borrowed him for show and tell without permission. Gabi needs the L.O.L.’s help to find Chester before the Band of Bigs (protecting and supporting the needs of—you guessed it—oldest siblings) find out that Chester is missing.

This hilarious young middle grade graphic novel combines humor, action, friendship, school, pets—and of course, sibling relationships. It is perfect for newly independent readers and fans of Babymouse, Lunch Lady, and the Bad Guys.

Reviews

“A group of youngest siblings are challenged by a hamster on the run. . . . A brief, amusing romp with potential for future fun.”  — Kirkus Reviews

“[A] shenanigans-filled graphic novel, a dual comics debut, that reimagines quintessential sibling rivalry. . . into a thrilling spy adventure complete with secret missions, opposing organizations, and high-stakes rescues. . . . Energetic artwork complements the book’s blend of comedy and derring-do, which emphasizes teamwork, problem-solving, and learning to recognize individual strengths, making for an amusing romp that’s chock-full of heart and laughs.” — Publishers Weekly
