Story and art by Jeff Smith.

For the youngest fans of the bestselling graphic novel series Bone, Jeff Smith has created two hilarious tales to delight beginning readers.

The Bone cousins find a coin -- finders keepers! -- but the boys can't agree on how to spend it. Fone Bone wants an apple and bananas they can share. Smiley Bone wants an ice cream cone with a pickle on top. And Phoney Bone wants to build a giant statue... of himself! Whose idea will win out?

Then, Smiley Bone walks through the woods on a beautiful morning. During his journey, he meets a flock of friendly and playful birds. Smiley is having such a good time that he must find a fantastical way to keep up with his new friends as they soar into the big, blue sky.

Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 8-in., 96 pages, full color.

Cover price $22.99.
