Duck, Cat, and the gang need a new place to hang out."Bored outta their gourd," the friends search for somewhere to go, but each spot they try is a dead end. The arcade is closed, the skate park's too crowded, and the local food shack is a mess. As they're brainstorming other options, Turkey suggests building a treehouse, and the others jump on the idea. Skeptical Cat deems the idea "crab" (uncool), but Duck and the others are into it. The gang go into the woods to find the perfect tree, and the friends disperse to collect building materials. They each pitch in and work hard…except Cat, but he eventually brings the finishing touches that really make this place a "far-out hangout." This second installment has the same format as the earlier book in the series: three chapters with minimal words and fun, cartoony comic panels. Like The King of Cool (2023), it features children having fun by living it up and accomplishing something together. Petrick's art is kid-friendly with a rad edge. The anthropomorphic animals sport sunglasses, baseball caps, and graphic tees. Young readers may not get all the old-school references, but they'll appreciate the sick vibes and smooth wordplay ("dope-as-a-cantaloupe").Totally sweet! (Graphic fiction. 5-8)
