Jax & Beans: All Tied Up, A Magical Adventure & Wordless Picture Mystery Book for Kids, Graphic Novel Without Words

Adventure is waiting just past the gate in Jax & Beans: ALL TIED UP, a wordless picture book where the garden is only the beginning.

Jax knows the rule. He's heard it a hundred times: Don't go past the gate. And on a perfect sunny afternoon in Grandma's garden, with fruit to pick and a tennis ball to throw, there's no reason to. Until Beans, his loyal, lovable dog, is suddenly, completely, mysteriously gone.

One rogue throw. One missing pup. One gate left open.

Now Jax is venturing into the shadowy woods beyond the backyard, where the trees have faces, the mushrooms have teeth, and the vines have a mind of their own. But not everything in these woods wants to scare him. Hiding behind Grandma's shed, frightened but friendly, is a little plant with big eyes and an even bigger heart. Dolphine the Succulent. She's just as lost as Jax. And together, they might be the only ones who can bring Beans home.

Can Jax and Dolphine find Beans before the woods close in? What happens when the vines come for Jax next? And will a trusty shovel and a bottle of Weed-B-Gone be enough to save the day?

Readers will want to hold tight to their own dogs as they tumble into the woods alongside Jax, Beans, and Dolphine. Because in this story, danger grows fast and friendship grows faster.

Jax & Beans: ALL TIED UP is a wordless picture adventure packed with heart, humor, and surprises on every page. No two reads are ever the same. Your child brings the voice, the story, and the imagination. And when the adventure ends, flip to Jax's personal field notes to discover every creature lurking in the garden: the Ghost Mushroom, the Star Frost Thistle, the Creeping Ivy, the Stumpys, and more.

For ages 4+. Perfect for bedtime and/or gifting to every young explorer who's ever wondered what lives just past the backyard gate.
