RICHMOND, VA, UNITED STATES, July 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Brandylane Publishers, Inc. of Richmond, Virginia, is excited to announce the release of a new children’s book, 'The Adventures of Fuzzy and Buzzy: Speedy’s Tree and the Disappearing Forest,' written by Josh Brandstadter and illustrated by Soraya Bartolome.

Dynamic bear and bee duo Fuzzy and Buzzy are back in this second installment of their eponymous adventures—and this time, they’re helping Speedy, a lightning-fast but forgetful squirrel who just can’t seem to remember where he left the special tree where he keeps all his nuts and seeds. Together, Fuzzy, Buzzy, and Speedy search for Speedy’s tree—only to discover that the forest surrounding it has been entirely felled by humans and their giant machines.

While they mourn this part of the forest, Fuzzy and Buzzy nevertheless are determined to welcome Speedy into their own forest, and offer to help him move his nuts to their own beloved woods—while also combatting the destruction of the forest by planting some of them so that new trees can grow.

Packed full of themes of teamwork, kindness, friendship, and environmentalism, including a section that tells young readers what they can do to help care for the planet—reusing and recycling paper, planting trees, and donating to organizations that help save forests—and paired with whimsical stylized artwork from Spanish artist Soraya Bartolome, 'The Adventures of Fuzzy and Buzzy: Speedy’s Tree and the Disappearing Forest' released on March 21, 2025.


'Fresh off their first adventure, Fuzzy and Buzzy are enjoying their forest when something new catches their eyes. An excited visitor introduces them to a new threat, one which they have never seen before. The health and well-being of their home ecosystem is at risk, but with some collaboration and forward thinking, they come up with a solution which will benefit everything from the smallest seeds to the largest trees.'
