The Art of DreamWorks Dog Man

A parent might reach for this book when their child is obsessed with Dog Man and Captain Underpants but is beginning to show a deeper interest in how things are actually made. It is the perfect bridge for the transition from consuming media to creating it, speaking directly to the child who spends hours drawing their own comics or wondering how a 2D sketch becomes a 3D movie character. This behind the scenes companion explores the artistic evolution of Dav Pilkey's beloved characters into a major motion picture. It highlights themes of creative collaboration, the technical grit behind animation, and the pride of seeing a vision come to life. Geared toward elementary and middle schoolers, it serves as an inspiring vocational guide that validates art as a serious and rewarding pursuit.
