Yeti Files series.
Blizz the yeti and his cryptid pals are called on by merfolk to help save the underwater city of Atlantis from its mayor, who is over-mining the sea's powerful crystals that keep the city running. Absurdity abounds on every busily illustrated page of the adventure, which includes a subtle message about taking care of the environment.

Yeti Files series.
In their second adventure, yeti Blizz and the cryptids trek to Scotland and then travel back to the time of the dinosaurs to help the Loch Ness Monster "find others like her." The design, featuring cartoony black-and-white illustrations, isn't always easy to follow but may draw in reluctant readers. What the story lacks in depth, it makes up for in goofy, slapstick humor.
