A brave heroine named Mai befriends a small stranger and helps him return home. Children everywhere can identify with her and enjoy this incredible journey.

Mai is a 12 year-old girl who loves reading and nature. When a lost mosquito interrupts her sleep, her friend Chaff suggests they escort Moskivvy home. So begins a courageous girl's voyage into a fantastic and colorful world. Guided by Chaff, Mai's adventure through a lush landscape will kindle readers' imaginations.

Adults and kids will be entranced by the many unique creatures these three adventurers encounter. Readers will share their courage and strength to travel through teeming jungles, blinding blizzards, and imposing mountains to reunite the little Moskivvy with his family.

Luke Feldman's distinctive illustrations combine vibrant colors and whimsical imagery. "Feldman's artwork blends the classic stylings of 1950s Disney with a modern design sensibility to create something both cutting edge and timeless," said Andrew Farago from San Francisco's Cartoon Art Museum. Comic book fans will discover a captivating world of visual delight.

"The story of a pretty girl, an unidentifiable faithful friend and a dapper lost mosquito is easy to follow, but the colourful, detailed illustrations are what makes this book a page-turner."
- Art Moco

Industry Reviews
"Comicon fans, this one's for you. Or your kids. From skateboard and sneaker design to children's picture books, Australian artist Luke Feldman has created quite a cult following of his waif-like illustrated characters known as Skaffs. They hang in the Cartoon Art Museum, they delight hipster animation fans, and now they come to life in the vibrant children's book..." - CoolMomPicks
"I first became a fan of Feldman's illustration when I saw his Pop Cling wall vinyls and then his toy prototypes at Comic Con. This book presents a whole new depth to his wonderful bold illustrations. Not only am I loving the main characters in the book- especially the super cute Chaff (check out that top hat!)- but the lush scenery and creatures in the backgrounds make the illustrations come to life. The story is one of compassion, courage and adventure, as a lost mosquito, Moskivvy, is helped back home with the help of his two new friends, Chaff and Mai." - Tokyo Bunnie
"A Dazzling Celebration of Childhood: ... A touching tale that teaches children the importance of family, friendship and love, the book is packed with vibrant, colourful illustrations and incredible creatures... As you follow the adventures of these three intrepid voyageurs, you can't help but fall in love with the dazzling hues, exotic animals and intriguing storyline that splash the pages of this book. So celebrate the true meaning of being a kid, and order a copy of this gem of a book for the little ones in your family." - Chic Today
"fans of Luke Feldman's art style are in for a real treat when it comes to this book. Mai was my favorite character. She is super kawaii and I love her many facial expressions that pretty much help solidify her moments of happiness, excitement and fear. In addition to Mai, I really loved the numerous unnamed personalities that the trio meet throughout their adventures - the monks, lady bugs and spiders were too cute for words." - IheartCoolStuff
"I appreciate that Feldman and Chin play homage to Feldman's Australian heritage, by including some colloquial language and native animals. Chaff n' Skaffs will lift imaginations, and is certainly an alluring feast for the eyes." - Children's Book Review
