A classic story of imagination, friendship, rock bands and high-speed helicopter chases. For fans of Ivy & Bean, Judy Moody or Nate the Great.

Everyone's favorite odd couple is back. Our heroine, Renata Wolfman (Wolfie) does everything by herself. Friends just get in the way, and she only has time for facts and reading. But friendship finds her in the form of Livingston Flott (Fly), the slightly weird and wordy boy from next door. This time, Fly has convinced Wolfie to join him in his one-man band. Before they know it, they're playing live onstage in front of a stadium of screaming fans. But these fans are about to get out of control--and Wolfie and Fly have to make a daring escape!

Even though Wolfie thinks she'd rather be at home reading by herself, playing the drums in a rock band is actually pretty fun. Maybe there is something to this friend thing...

Praise for Wolfie and Fly

PRAISE FOR WOLFIE AND FLY:
"A promising first outing for this memorable odd-couple." --Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

"This fun-filled early chapter book brims with personality as the curmudgeonly Renata opens herself up to friendship and new experiences. Lively illustrations capture the kids' imaginative antics, while the relatable story is accessibly written. Young readers will enthusiastically embrace this entertaining odd couple." --Booklist, Starred Review

"Fans of Ivy & Bean, Judy Moody or Nate the Great will appreciate this classic story of imagination, friendship and adventure told by a master." --City Parent

PRAISE FOR Jacob Two-Two on the High Seas:
Offical pick for the TD Summer Reading Club
"... Fagan crafts a zany tale that kids (in the spirit of Jacob's doublespeak) will want to read at least twice." --Publishers Weekly
"... this book has high adventure and black-and-white line drawings interspersed throughout." --School Library Journal
"... Well supplied with comical sketches from Petričić, plus a supporting cast... the episode fits into the series nicely in both breathless pacing and Roald Dahl-style zaniness ..." --Kirkus Reviews
