Tuck and Tina and the Lost Fortune

Book #1 Tuck and Tina

Meet Tuck and Tina, two mice pals on a quest to save their elementary school! This is the first book in an all-new, adorable, and colorful series that’s perfect for young readers who are ready to make the leap from picture books to chapter books, from bestselling creators Jess Brallier and Jack Keely.

Tina and Tuck are two unlikely class pets who are ready for adventure!

Tina lives at Boone School. She loves listening to lessons and seeing all the kids having fun with their friends. She just wishes she had a real friend of her own. So when a new class pet arrives, Tina wonders if her wish might come true.

However, Tuck is a ball of energy, causing chaos wherever he goes.

But when the school faces closure, Tina and Tuck must put aside their differences and work together to find a secret fortune rumored to be hidden somewhere in the school.

Can these two smallest of heroes save the day—and their home?

This beautifully illustrated, full-color chapter book is just right for fans of Jeff Kinney, Lincoln Peirce, and Rachel Renée Russell. Which is saying a lot, considering it’s written by a mouse!
