Book 3 in the Speed Bump and Slingshot Misadventures illustrated chapter book series starring two slacker friends on a frightful odyssey through a zombie-filled forest

Speed Bump and Slingshot investigate a potential zombie outbreak in their neck of the forest. As newly minted members of the Eagle Scouts, they're doing their best to be brave, but when a creepy crow confirms their suspicions, these chicken-hearted birds lose their cool. To make matters worse--they're not just zombie-birds, they're ZOMBIE-BUGS Can these hesitant heroes cast their fears aside and face the cicadas newly risen from the underworld? Or will the zombie-bugs conquer all and transform Speed Bump and Slingshot into the undead?

Find out in Night of the Living Zombie Bugs, the third installment of this hilarious series from internationally syndicated cartoonist Dave Coverly (author of Dogs Are People, Too and illustrator of The Very Inappropriate Word.)
