From award-winning children's book author-illustrator Charise Mericle Harper comes a one-of-a-kind chapter book perfect for fans of the Narwhal and Jelly and Kondo & Kezumi series.

After receiving an urgent mountaintop message from the blue jay, Mouse proclaims to all the woodland creatures: "The Shindig is coming!" The entire forest is soon abuzz with everyone asking the same question: What is a shindig? Meetings are held. Assumptions are made. Honey cake is served. Finally Bear declares the answer. A shindig is a party, which is just like a meeting only fun. Problem solved! . . . Or is it?

When the blue jay finally reaches the party-prepping crew, all that pep turns to panic. The blue jay's message wasn't an invitation. It was a warning! THE SHINDIG IS COMING! Hooves, claws, and paws scatter when the mysterious forest visitors arrive at last. And opossum faints. Again.

Find out what Mouse heard, what Bear said, and what Opossum missed in The Shindig Is Coming! Charise Mericle Harper's hilarious storytelling and dynamic line art are on full display in this laugh-out-loud original chapter book for readers ages 7 and up.
