Leaf and the Travel Bug
by A.A. Vickers


Leaf the chameleon likes her life in beautiful Cricket Cove. But sometimes she gets bored of looking at the same-old flowers and eating the same-old cabbage and fried crickets. Sometimes Leaf longs to see the world. When Leaf meets a mysterious, sparkly bug named TJ, she knows her life is about to change. Because, you see, TJ is a travel bug, and seeing the world is what travel bugs do best! Together, Leaf and TJ go on adventures and explore strange, new lands. They have dinner with a king crab, surf on koi, and hang out with a bat. They even have races on polar bear cubs! Best of all, Leaf learns how good it feels to return to Cricket Cove and sleep in her own bed. A.A. Vickers’ cheeky humour and lush illustrations celebrate wanderlust, friendship, and the open road—the same road that always leads us back home.


A.A. Vickers is an artist, author, world traveller, and mom. Leaf the chameleon wandered into her life one day when she was making up stories for her kids and quickly became a favourite character and inspiration to try new things. A.A. Vickers lives in Hamilton, Ontario, with her two young daughters, two dogs—Kiedis and Florence—and a crested gecko named Gunther. Leaf and the Travel Bug is her first book.
