The Tiny Beast of Battle Ground: A Field Guide to Wonderfully Odd Creatures
In Battle Ground, Washington, rain softens the earth, trees keep old secrets, and tiny creatures may be closer than we think.
Most people never notice the Tiny Beast. It hides behind moss, beside mushrooms, under curled leaves, and between ordinary moments. But the Tiny Beast has a very important job: it collects creature stories.
With a tiny satchel, a pine-needle pencil, and a magical field guide, the Tiny Beast leads readers into a hidden world of wonderfully odd creatures. Children will meet Wumblewick, the finder of lost things; Cloudlewhisp, the softener of dreams; Mossbrow, the grumpy bridge guardian with a secret love for flowers; Lintabella, the cozy comfort maker; Blinkaroo, the disappearing mischief-maker; Snorble, the keeper of old stories; Petaluna, the moonflower conductor; Bogglebeak, the question-asking detective; Glowmunk, the brave lantern guide; and Marma-Moo, the peaceful meadow friend who believes there should be no shouting before snacks.
But as the Tiny Beast writes everyone else's story, one question remains:
Who will write about the Tiny Beast?
The Tiny Beast of Battle Ground is a whimsical children's picture book and illustrated field guide for ages 5 to 9. Filled with magical creatures, cozy fantasy, soft watercolor-style illustrations, hidden-object moments, and a create-your-own-creature activity, this story invites young readers to look closely, imagine boldly, and discover the wonder tucked inside ordinary places.
Perfect for bedtime reading, classroom read-alouds, library storytime, nature-loving children, creative writing prompts, and readers who enjoy magical creatures, hidden-object books, field guides, cozy fantasy, imaginative adventures, and Pacific Northwest children's stories.
Because every creature is carrying a little dream. And sometimes, so are you.
