If You Ask an Axolotl

By Abby Lyons, Doctor Waffle, Ryan Walter

From Doctor Waffle, the popular singer-songwriting duo, comes a sweet and whimsical picture book adapted from their viral "If You Ask an Axolotl" TikTok video--featuring a brand-new verse and sheet music

There's an axolotl on the pink stairs. Is an axolotl supposed to be there? Penguin and Axolotl play a game of cat and mouse, among other hijinks, in this playful, rhythmic read-aloud that celebrates the joy of curiosity, the magic of unexpected friendships, and the connective power of music.
