No these stories stand alone. But, the stories in the books do connect to the episodes which are referenced on the last page along with a Bible verse and associated Slugs & Bugs songs.
The workshop is an imaginative and wonder-filled space where kids and families are invited to join in with Slugs & Bugs characters Doug, Sparky, Morty and Maggie. Life in the workshop finds joy and delight in everyday experiences and everyone’s contributions in God’s big world.
These stories follow our characters through exciting hijinks inside and outside The Workshop, and will surely scratch the itch for all the kids (and parents) who can’t get enough of The Slugs & Bugs Show.
