In Book 3: "Misery" of the A Bug Travels Far series, Ty Fly is finally on his way home to Boston-until a turbulent flight and an unexpected seatmate threaten to turn his journey into a nightmare. Enter Annie Spider, a larger-than-life arachnid who sees Ty not as a fellow traveler, but as a potential meal. With storm clouds outside and danger inside the cabin, Ty must rely on his wits, instincts, and courage to survive. Will he outsmart nature's oldest rule-survival of the fittest-or become just another bug caught in the web
Blending fast-paced adventure with themes of identity, resilience, and belonging, Misery spins a tale that's as thoughtful as it is thrilling. This inclusive children's book series continues Ty's journey as a transbug navigating a world that doesn't always understand him-but can't keep him from soaring.
