Vassie Sees Everything - by Eric July (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

From Vassie creator and writer Eric July--the second Vassie picture book on the Rippaverse Backyard imprint. Illustrations by Matteo Lucchetti; colors by Felipe Felix.

Vassie sees everything. The mismatched socks. The moved photographs. The way Uncle Avery always slips out right before the hero shows up. A rhyming, read-aloud picture book about a girl who notices what the grown-ups miss--and what happens when the smallest details start adding up to her family's biggest secret.

Where Vassie and the Mightiest Thing (9/15/26) was about family showing up, Vassie Sees Everything is about really seeing the people who do--a story about observation, curiosity, and the heritage hiding in plain sight in a superhero family. The second title in the Vassie picture-book series, and a doorway for young readers into the wider Rippaverse her uncle calls home. Told in the same playful, gentle rhyme as the series debut, it's built for bedtime reading--written for ages 3-5 and made to be read aloud, together. On sale 10/13/26 from the Rippaverse Backyard imprint.

From Rippaverse founder Eric July, creator-writer of the Vassie picture-book series, with illustrations by Matteo Lucchetti (Italy) and colors by Felipe Felix--the same creative team as the series debut, keeping Vassie's world warm, bright, and instantly recognizable.
