About Mellybean and the Giant Monster:

A graphic novel about a spunky pup who gets trapped in a world filled with magic, adventure, and one giant, grumpy monster.

Melly loves to play games. All her feline friends want to do, though, is take a nap. So when she doesn’t leave them alone, the cats trick her into burying a shoe in the backyard. But the small prank turns into a big problem when Melly falls down the hole . . . and is magically transports her to another world!

This book club is generously sponsored by the Friends of the Avon Library.
