K's Car can go anywhere! Join J and K on a breathtaking adventure as they go on the ultimate road trip in the world's greatest car.


Tadpole J is ready for a lazy Saturday in Lilypad City, but his big sister, frog K, has other plans – they're going on a road trip! K built a spectacular car that can go anywhere, so J packs them a picnic lunch and off they go! Beyond the lakeside cliffs, through the Spikey Spike Forest, and past the Domed City of Fafa. But when the road gets blocked at the Waterfall Mountains, they get stopped right in their tracks. Or do they? Because when K says her car can go anywhere, she really means anywhere!
Jonathan Tune is a visual storyteller from Richmond, Virginia, where he received a BFA in Communication Arts from Virginia Commonwealth University. He now lives in Seattle.


Eleanor Doughty is an illustrator, painter, and urban sketcher originally from the Washington, DC area and is now based in Seattle. Her work captures realistic subjects and imbues them with significance and character. She enjoys cartoons, riding her scooter, and a good americano on a rainy day.
