I Am a Highly Dangerous Warrior! -- Raquel D'Apice, Hardcover

From Emmy award-winning comedian Raquel D'Apice and bestselling illustrator Heather Fox comes a hilarious take on developmental leaps exploring the bravery it takes to tackle the next big thing--with some help from the things in life that make us feel safe.

This young warrior is ready. He knows he can defeat the scary, hairy monster just like the big kids. But his wizard guardian keeps pointing out how he's still too young. So what if he still gets blown backward by a gust of wind?! Or still rubs his boogers on the cat? Not having a plan has never stopped him before! And having Blanket by his side may be all he needs to prove to his wizard he's a highly dangerous six-year-old.
