Tegan the Vegan Mosquito

Esther Krogdahl Illustrated by Sally Anderson

A mosquito convinces her best friend to go vegan in this hilarious tale of friendship, failure, and determination.

Tegan the mosquito is determined to be vegan, so she enlists her enthusiastic (if wildly unskilled) friend Stu to make three vegan drinks. But with pond slime lemonade and explosive soy shakes, this taste-testing adventure is anything but smooth. Tegan the Vegan Mosquito is a riotous rhyming story packed with gross-out humour, expressive illustrations, and a gentle nod to conscious eating. This is a joyful high-energy read about friendship, persistence, and finding the courage to try something new—even if it doesn’t go to plan!
 

  • A laugh-out-loud introduction to veganism, with rhyming text, slapstick mishaps, and unexpected heart.
  • Encourages conversations around food choices, friendship, and perseverance without being preachy.
  • Packed with visual comedy and wild characterizations—perfect for fans of silly details and animated expressions.
