Backpack Goblins: A Book On Classroom Cryptids

By Steven Schenck

Your child didn't forget their homework.
It was eaten.

By a Backpack Goblin.

Homework vanishes.
Reading logs disappear.
Permission slips evaporate.

Coincidence?

Absolutely not.

Inside every messy backpack lives a tiny, crumb-loving, paper-devouring creature that eats only the most important things.

In this laugh-out-loud, wildly relatable picture book, kids finally discover the real reason their school supplies go missing - and grown-ups may start questioning their theories too.

With bold, playful illustrations and clever humor that both children and teachers will love, Backpack Goblins turns everyday school chaos into a hilarious mystery adventure.

This book is perfect if your child:
- Constantly "loses" homework
- Has a backpack that looks like a paper explosion
- Loves silly monsters and mischievous creatures
- Needs a gentle nudge toward better habits

Parents will appreciate the subtle message about responsibility and organization.
Teachers will love using it as a fun back-to-school read-aloud.
Kids will laugh... and maybe even clean their backpacks.

Maybe.

Because Backpack Goblins are VERY sneaky.

And if homework disappears tomorrow...

He's already planning lunch.
