Maybelle the cockroach loves tasty crumbs and scrumptious sprinkles, but she is tired of braving the dangers of Mr. and Mrs. Peabody's kitchen: the flattening feet, the bright light, and especially the cat, Ramona.

Enter Bernice. She's an ant with a head cold who can't find her way back to her nest, and she adopts Maybelle as her new queen. But Bernice has a habit of getting into trouble, causing the Peabodys to think their house is haunted. Can't a cockroach ever get a break?

Review quotes

"An ideal choice for readers who are just starting chapter books." —School Library Journal

"Delightful details will make adults giggle right along with new readers. . . . Maybelle is one cockroach who will be welcome back any day." —Kirkus Reviews, starred review on Maybelle in the Soup

"With its short chapters and simple dialogue, this story of friendship and wishful dreaming will engage readers. . . .

"Short sentences, laugh-out-loud situations, and likable characters make this second series entry a winner." —Kirkus Reviews on Maybelle Goes to Tea
