The perfect present for Dog Man fans - starring
some of your favourite characters from the series!
Cat Kid Comic Club is back in session in this groundbreaking graphic
novel narrative by Dav Pilkey, the worldwide bestselling and
award-winning author and illustrator of Dog Man.
Flippy, Molly, Li'l Petey, and twenty-one baby frogs each
have something to say.
Naomi and Melvin don't see eye to eye and Poppy perceives the
world differently than her siblings.
Will the baby frogs figure out how to work together and appreciate
one another's point of view - both inside and outside the classroom?
The shenanigans are nonstop and the baby frogs' minicomics
are funny and full of heart.
Creating stories within a story, author and illustrator Dav Pilkey
uses a variety of techniques - including acrylic paints, coloured
pencils, Japanese calligraphy, photography, collage, gouache,
watercolours, and much more - to portray each frog's perspective.
The kaleidoscope of art styles, paired with Pilkey's trademark
storytelling and humour, fosters creativity, collaboration, independence,
and empathy.
Readers of all ages will relish this joyful graphic novel
adventure.

PRAISE FOR CAT KID COMIC CLUB #1
Author Dav Pilkey knows that kids can giggle about poop jokes
while asking big, philosophical questions; he's created a funny,
deep, wonderfully irreverent graphic novel to match that spirit.

Cat Kid Comic Club: Perspectives
Description
Author Description
When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books -- the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants.
In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to write and illustrate for kids. He took her advice and created his first book, World War Won, which won a national competition in 1986. Dav made many other books before being awarded the California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath (1994) and the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy (1996).
In 2002, Dav published his first full-length graphic novel for kids, called The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby. It was both a USA Today and New York Times bestseller. Since then, he has published more than a dozen full-length graphic novels for kids, including the bestselling Dog Man and Cat Kid Comic Club series.
Dav's stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, empathy, and the triumph of the good-hearted.
When he is not making books for kids, Dav loves to kayak with his wife in the Pacific Northwest.
