“Dog man was the greatest cop ever”

blurb
M.Marvins

This is another book that I would encourage reluctant readers stories as it‘s very easy to read and many students will like the books content. This is not a book I would use for a full class lesson though.

While I could see young boys enjoying this style of book, I myself did not. The illustrations fit the theme and it was a good example of a graphic novel, it just wasn't for me.

blurb

This can be used in the classroom to encourage reluctant readers and make reading fun through its engaging visuals and humor. Teachers can also facilitate discussions on themes like friendship and responsibility, prompting students to create their own superhero stories or illustrations.

“Dog Man" by Dav Pilkey is a hilarious and action-packed graphic novel that follows the adventures of a part-dog, part-man superhero. With witty humor and engaging illustrations, it captivates young readers while promoting themes of friendship and bravery. The story is fast-paced and full of heart, making it a fantastic choice for reluctant readers.

(graphic novel) the author's playful art and humor engage young readers, making it a great entry point into graphic novels

This book is perfect for kids because it‘s filled with funny moments and exciting adventures. The relatable themes of friendship, bravery, and doing the right thing encourage young readers to embrace their uniqueness.

This fun series follows Dog Man, who was created when a police officer‘s head was sewn onto a dog‘s body. Together, they face villains and take on hilarious adventures.

I kept seeing this book series, so I had to find out why everyone is so obsessed with it. I can see why kids would love it, it matches their type of humor. I was entertained, but I only thought it was okay, nothing I would particularly seek out. But it seems like it would be great for a lot of kids, especially the reluctant readers.

Henry and I were on our way out the door heading to speech therapy, and the mailman pulled up with Henry's pre-ordered Dog Man book. He was so excited he finished before we even got there.

TheKidUpstairs I picked up my son's pre-order today, and he immediately devoured it, too! 9mo
TEArificbooks Mine read his fast in the car too 9mo
Traci1 @TheKidUpstairs @TEArificbooks I'm curious what else your boys like to read. Henry is very picky and will read these and the Cat Kids over and over rather than anything new. We have LOADS of books in the house, and I'll happily buy him whatever ones he's interested in, but he mostly only wants to read graphics (which is fine, but I'd love to find others he might like). 9mo

TEArificbooks Similar to Dogman, they liked the Investigators series and Agent Moose. My youngest is more into nonfiction. But they both liked The Wild Robot series for chapter books which is being turned into a movie this year, the trailer is out. 9mo
TheKidUpstairs @Traci1 mine is the same way, he mostly rereads his Pilkey collection. He also enjoyed the first Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but lost interest in book 2. And he loves the Press Start series (they're VERY quick reads, but there's a good number of them, including a Choose Your Own Adventure style one) 9mo
JillR I‘ve lost track of reading ages a little now my two are getting older, but remember the Treehouse Storey series being a hit 9mo

This book is so silly and gross. I loved it. I brought this home from the library. My daughter (15) said, “Wait! When you said Dog Man, I thought you were talking about some weird fantasy novel, not THESE! These are low-key really funny.” I agree. I was even making my husband look at panels that made me laugh audibly. Just good fun. My favorite bit was: *ring ring* Hello? There‘s been a jail break! Where? At the jail! Oh. So dumb. 🤣🤣🤣

Rats!!! I unwittingly created the greatest cop of ever!!!!!

blurb

I liked how dog man combined two different characters, it showed perspective in a way that was easy for children to understand. It is a hero vs villan aspect between Petey the cat and Dog man

A awesome graphic novel series perfect for kid The bright and funny comics make reading a enjoyable even for those who usually don't like books. Common themes include friendship, teamwork, and doing good deeds. It's not only entertaining but also teaches important lessons.

My 7 year old has discovered Dog Man and is *obsessed* - all he wants to do is read! 🥰 I had to try it out and see for myself what all the fuss was about. It's very silly, with lots of gross humor. I can see why he likes it lol

TheKidUpstairs My 9 year old is OBSESSED with all things Dav Pilkey. He started with Dog Man, he's read them all now multiple times. Pilkey really knows how to connect with his audience! 2y
JackOBotts My son is a HUGE fan…and his little sister is an aspirational one (just needs to learn how to ready!😉). I‘m not sure where you‘re located, but Dog Man: The Musical is a thing, and it‘s a very entertaining live performance. 🤣 Also check out the tagged book 2y
Johanna414 @JackOBotts it‘s funny you mention Cat Kid - we just checked a couple of them out from the library tonight! Unfortunately, we live in the middle of nowhere, a couple hours south of Buffalo NY so there‘s not many options for theaters. I‘ll keep an eye out for it in the future though! 2y
BarbaraJean My only association with Dav Pilkey was Captain Underpants, and I was skeptical until my sister introduced me to the tagged book and I had to revise my judgement!! Dragon is now one of my favorite Christmas reads. 2y

Reading has really clicked with Lane in the last couple months and he is so excited about it! The kids usually have a half hour or so of quiet playtime while I read before bed on weeknights and then we read stories together. Lately, he has been choosing to join me and read together, which makes me soooooo happy! #raisingreaders

Graphica. These series is from the creator of the Captain underpants series. It is about a crimefighting half man half dog. I myself am not a big fan of graphica but I enjoyed the idea of a crime fighting dog man. I also really like the illustrations and action that was present throughout the book.

Is the perfect book for students living mystery but is not ready for a scary mystery yet. I definitely laughed out loud while reading.

The Adventures of Dog Man, published in 2016 was a funny read! Seemed entertaining for children as they go through the story solving the different mysteries. This would keep them engaged and teach problem solving skills.

My nephews tried to get me to read this when it came out but it was @Lindy 's review that finally did it 😁 Turns out I'm still a 10-year-old who will never get over silly humour. I truly enjoyed this! There's even a hotdog revolution that made me think, What would Ignatius Reilly do? Plus, I spent some happy minutes on my non-existent drawing skills sketching Dog Man using the supplementary material at the end. I struggled with the paw-hands 😂

jewright My eight year old son is obsessed with these books. I appreciate the literature puns. 4y
batsy @jewright Yes! It's just so unabashedly silly with some funny lines/moments. 4y

I wouldn‘t go so far as to claim this graphic novel made me scoot my butt on the carpet with joy, but the infectious silliness kept me chuckling throughout. It‘s by the creator of Captain Underpants, which should give you an idea of the content. #AllAges #comics #graphicnovel #kidlit

mandarchy I have read the entire series - I have a 10 year old. We love Dav Pilkey. I have read more books by him than any other author and I have decided he's a genius. All for my kid. 4y

We‘re on day 4 of the school‘s annual readathon fundraiser. The girls have raised the same amount of money but Genevieve has for sure read way more than her sister. She has just discovered that she actually really loves Dogman. She read it the whole way to dance, and in the hallway as she waited. She was even a tad late to class because she just couldn‘t stop reading. 😆
