Cat Kid Comic Club: Collaborations: A Graphic Novel (Cat Kid Comic Club #4): From the Creator of Dog Man
The Cat Kid Comic Club learns to collaborate in this creative, funny, and insightful graphic novel by Dav Pilkey, the author and illustrator of Dog Man.
Excitement and imagination run wild as Naomi, Melvin, Poppy, Gilbert, Curly, and their siblings get back to making comics with originality and laughter. But wait -- have they cleaned their rooms yet?!

By working together, the baby frogs discover that small things can have a huge impact.

The variety of art styles, paired with Pilkey's trademark storytelling and humor, inspires imagination and innovation for readers of all ages.

My 7 year old has been counting down the days until the 4th Cat Kid book came out, so I surprised him with it today when he came home from school. He did a happy dance and squealed in excitement upon opening it. We love all the Dav Pilkey book. His books get my kids enjoying reading and it's a bonus that I can hear their laughter down the hallway while they are submerged in the stories. Cute, fun, and teach good lessons! Highly recommend this series and his others as well!
