About This Book
In the seventh installment of Dav Pilkey's beloved Dog Man series, our canine hero confronts his own anxieties as his bad habits morph into fears, making him a target for a brand new supervillain. Meanwhile, Petey the Cat, recently released from jail, is determined to turn over a new leaf and embrace his role as a loving father to Li'l Petey. This graphic novel masterfully blends slapstick humor and action-packed adventure with heartwarming themes of personal growth, redemption, and the evolving dynamics of a found family. It's an excellent choice for young readers aged 8-12 who enjoy fast-paced stories and laugh-out-loud moments, while subtly exploring important emotional lessons.
