Toppsta - Childrens Books – Reviews

A brilliant new book series from author Dav Pilkey, creator of Captain Underpants! Dog Man is the crime-biting canine who is part dog, part man, and ALL COP! With all the same humour and fun of Captain Underpants, Dog Man is a brilliant series of comic-book style novels.

The first book in the series is Dog Man. Three Dog Man books came out last year: Book 6: Brawl of the Wild was published in January 2019; Book 7: For Whom the Ball Rolls will come out in August 2019 and the new Dog Man book Fetch 22 came out in December 2019. Dog Man will also be part of World Book Day 2020 with three brilliant, new stories.
 
Dog Man is the ultimate cop – with the brain of a super-smart dog and the body of a super-strong cop, he is bound to outwit his arch-enemy, cat Lil Petey. And when he gains an unlikely side-kick, Dog Man and Cat Kid are double trouble for Petey’s evil plans. 

You can head to the author's website https://pilkey.com/ for Dog Man colouring pages, games, how-to-draw tutorials and more! Like all Dav Pilkey’s books, the Dog Man comics are inspiring for budding artists, with the fliporamas and “how to draw” pages. 

Dog Man’s Reading Level is Grades 1-3 (USA), ages 6+ in the UK. We’d recommend the Dog Man series for anyone who loves silly humour, comics and superheroes, whatever your age.
