Welcome back Squish! The newest character created by the siblings Matt and Jenni Holm is Squish, the amoeba. Here is book #3: SQUISH: THE POWER OF THE PARASITE (Random House 2012). Squish appeared as a character in one of the BabyMouse books as well as starring in three books in the his own series. Summer vacation has just begun, and Squish's parents have signed him up for swim lessons. Squish is less than thrilled about this and hangs instead poolside with a new friend. But is he really a new friend? Squish learns an important lesson about friendship here. And readers will learn much about the single-celled creatures who populate Squish's world. <314>
