"All hail Mellybean! A fun action-packed adventure from start to finish." --James Burks, author of the Bird and Squirrel series The Secret Life of Pets meets The Wizard of Oz in this debut graphic novel about a spunky pup who gets trapped in a world filled with magic, adventure, and one giant, grumpy monster.
Mike White was born and raised in Toronto. He worked for five years in children's television animation before moving to San Francisco in 2008 to make mobile games and apps. In 2018, after getting nachos for lunch, Mike and his girlfriend, Carol, were walking around an outdoor mall and met a cute little puppy at a pop-up adoption event. After much consideration they adopted the puppy and named her Melody, and her delightful and infectious personality became the inspiration for Mellybean.

"I loved every page of this fantastically paw-some story! Mellybean
may be little but she's got a big heart. With characters you’ll
adore, a fun-packed adventure, and loads of laughs on the way,
Mellybean proves that anything is possible with a bit of help from

"Subversive and hilarious. This story is funny enough to get
away with being utterly adorable." —Kirkus Reviews
"White’s debut is charming and sweet, with a plot that benefits
from its predictability, allowing the reader to focus instead on
lovable characters and White’s gifted composition and linework.
Readers not yet ready for Jeff Smith’s Bone series are bound to
fall for Melly and the gang." —BCCB
"[A] charming comics series starter. The graphic novel may skew
slightly younger... but Melly’s infectious enthusiasm, portrayed
through straightforward art, makes her a very good dog,
indeed." —Publisher's Weekly
