Meet the Funjeepups, three curious and adorable woodland critters, in this "first comic" picture book series from the creator of Kitties on Dinosaurs!

In this story, Button, Dot and Dollop get a music lesson from a feathery friend!


Button, Dot and Dollop love exploring the magical forest they live in. They love vine swinging. They love guppie bumping. They love making nature art. But what they love most is returning home after an exciting day of adventuring.

When out on a morning walk, the Funjeepups spot a friendly bird who sings them a beautiful song — which inspires the Funjeepups to create their own song. But unfortunately, they can't play any instruments! Thankfully, their feathery friend is there to lend a helping wing.

Young readers will be inspired to create their own song alongside the Funjeepups in this light and funny picture book series by Michael Slack!
