Eight year old loves it
My daughter loves this series. This latest book is no exception. She read it within an hour of getting it and has been drawing characters from the book all evening.
Dave Pilkey has done it again!
These are great books for 7-12 year olds! Impish (clean) humor and imagination, exhuberant energy. Dave is a master at engaging this age group...and bigger kids who wish Dave was publishing when we were in school... A step above Captain Underpants, the Dogman series are mirthful parodies of classic literature and media too many teachers render into bone dry tedious requirements. Every kid forced to sit in a chair for 8 hours every day (and their parents as well, lol) will appreciate these updated retellings and, when paired with the classics themselves, there’s a far higher likelihood the plot and “required” aspects will be remembered long after the books have been shelved. Humor works!
Great addition to the series!
I have a HUGE Dav Pilkey fan. This book lit up his world. I would say this is 2nd grade reading level but I'll continue to buy every Dav Pilkey book as long as he puts new ones out. If you're unfamiliar with this series it is much like the Cpatain Underpants series and more comic style than chapter book. These books are amazing at engaging young readers!
My Son Finished this Book in Three Days
My seven year old son doesn't hate reading, but there are almost always other things he'd rather be doing than reading. He finished this book in three days. I've never seen him so focused on a book. I don't necessarily like these comic book type books (there are also some words in the book that we don't use - like "idiot" and "stupid"), but if it gets him to learn to love reading, then I'm all for it.
WOW! An Instant way to increase your child's reading
After purchasing the series, my child was upgraded three reading levels, as the common core reading lessons weren't challenging enough. I recommend this book to any Mother and or Father who not only wants to heighten their child's reading ability, but also prepare them for comic books as well!
Colorful
My 8 year old loves this book. Easy read for him but anything to get him reading,
Great choice for new readers who need help finding their passion for reading
My 6 year old son loves the dogman series! and his twin sister is reading them too now. Great book for kids who may be disinterested in reading. The books are comic like style, and spot on 6 year old boy potty humor. These books got him interested in the characters (excuse me, writers George and Harold) which created an interest in reading more about them, so I bought the Captain Underpants series (13 books so far). He has devoured all of them in just a couple of months. These CU books series is more chapter style writing with pictures on most pages to keep them engaged. Thank you, Dave Pilkey for fostering a passion for reading in my son!!
My kid loves dog man
My 4 year old loves Dog man books, she drew the characters every day as well. She laffs and giggles when she just looks at the comic and asks us to read them all the time. I think her favorite is this one, when dog man and the cat kid dresses as superheroes with cape and everything. To be honest, I feel it's a bit early that we give these books to her when she was only three (she got the first one from a gift exchange at daycare then we bought the rest for her). She sometimes got confused about the good, the bad, the ugly in these books. She says I'm sending you to jail when she gets frustrated. But still worth it, as long as she loves it.
