Deepthink Books

A collection of middle-grade short stories that returns to the fantasy world of Horns & Wrinkles. The town of Blue Wing has a surplus of dogs. Many of them used to be kids. The locals blame all this on a troll spell that starts out this way:

                        If a dog

                        You wish to be

                        Here is the perfect

                        Spell for thee

Don’t worry though. Most of the dogs in question prefer their new life. No way do they want to go back to school, and cleaning theirs rooms, and answering endless questions about what they want to be when they grow up.

Intended for middle-grade readers, The Three-Berry Academy returns to the fantasy world of Horns & Wrinkles, where trolls who live along the Mississippi River have strong feelings about going to school—they’d rather not.

Ms. Quiet Quickthorn is the headmistress of a one-room schoolhouse found at the bottom of Big Mouth Slough. There’s a catfish in the school’s rafters and a snapping turtle hall monitor. But even with their help, Ms. Quickthorn has her hands full. Young trolls just don’t want to return to school after a summer of roaming free on the river. To fill her classroom she first has to catch her students, and they don’t come willingly, which only adds to the fun.
