Parents and kids are cracking up at first known sighting of a Bigfoot vs. Yeti tennis match.

People are laughing uncontrollably at the hilarious hijinks of Baby Bigfoot and Baby Yeti.

The author, Dr. Mounce, says, “Children are asking their parents and teachers to settle down and go to the next page. They want to hear more of the story, but the grown-ups are getting too tickled!”

As proof of this, a reader who goes by the mysterious handle of Chirpiebird said, “Our 6-year-old twins have ASKED to read this book more than 6 times in 24 hours.”

Dr. Mounce, a revered author and professor, is also the parent of a 6-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter. A Halloween baby from the Deep South, he works full-time at teaching his kids the love of all things spooky and Southern. Whether it’s learning why chocolate gravy-n-biscuits is a breakfast delicacy, or why the legendary Possumhead Man is totally real, it’s never a dull moment around the Mounce-house.

In Let’s Play Tennis! (A Baby Bigfoot and Baby Yeti Book), Baby Bigfoot is looking for a game of tennis. Baby Yeti just wants to have a great day. Baby Bigfoot and Baby Yeti are BFFFs: big footed friends forever, but will an epic smash ruin the fun?
