DogZombies Rule (for Now) is a laugh-out-loud, heavily illustrated chapter book from the popular Tom Gates series, perfect for early to late elementary readers. The story follows Tom as he devises an 'excellent plan' to propel his band, DogZombies, to global stardom. Readers will enjoy his quirky perspective on writing songs, making a music video, and dealing with everyday challenges like noisy neighbors and his older sister, Delia. The diary-style format, filled with doodles and handwritten text, makes it highly engaging for reluctant readers and those who love visual storytelling. It's a fantastic choice for pure entertainment, normalizing feelings of frustration and ambition, and modeling creative problem-solving.
Here's my EXCELLENT PLAN to make DogZombies the BEST band in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD! How hard can it be? (Very) Right now I'm going to:1. Write more songs. (Not about teachers) 2. Make a SPECTACULAR music video. (Easy) 3. Get some sleep. (Tricky when you're being kept awake by LOUD NOISES) 4. Annoy Delia. (Nothing to do with DOGZOMBIES but always FUN.)
