About this book

Danny Dragonbreath and his best friend Wendell the iguana find themselves in over their heads when stealthy ninja frogs suddenly show up in town. A new student and a case of mistaken identity pull the duo into a fast, funny adventure that blends comics and prose. Packed with goofy humor, action, and just-right suspense, it’s perfect for readers who like hybrid chapter books. Fans enjoy the quick pace, cartoon panels, and Danny’s determined (if not always graceful) heroics.

Setting: present-day middle school and suburbs with humorous fantasy elements
