"Bedbug in a Mug: When Mom's Away" is a whimsical, heartwarming children's book about 6-year-old Len, his family, and a very unusual friendship.

After Mom calls pest control, the bedbug escapes and forms an unlikely bond with Len. The clever little boy, who's determined to help the bedbug, makes a deal: if the bedbug agrees to hide in Mom's favorite travel mug-a special gift from Len, his brother Billy, and their dad-the bedbug can stay safe and protected.
