Kat Kong - by Dav Pilkey (Paperback)

About the Book

When Kat Kong breaks free from his restraints, he tears through the streets of Mousopolis. Pilkey's classic parody is now available in this digest-sized edition. Full color.

Book Synopsis

Kat Kong is a funny picture book from the genius mind of Dav Pilkey--creator of laugh-out-loud kid favorites including Captain Underpants and Dog Man.

When the fearsome Kat Kong wreaks havoc on the rodent citizens of Mousopolis (all played by Pilkey's own pets in mixed-media photographic illustrations) someone must halt the massive meowing menace before it's too late!

But is anyone clever enough to halt this massive meowing menace?

For kids not quite ready to enter the chapter book world, Kat Kong is a winner. This silly spoof of King Kong has all of the zany cat-and-mouse action you'd expect from Dav Pilkey, creator of the bestselling Dog Man and Captain Underpants series.

Review Quotes

Praise for Dogzilla and Kat Kong: "These two brazenly funny picture books spoof Godzilla and King Kong as they launch the mice inhabitants of Mousopolis against, respectively, a killer cat and dog. Pilkey's irreverent exuberance is irresistible." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The irrepressible Pilkey strikes again with a spoof of the famous film, enacted by a real cat and some mice in color photo images imposed on background paintings. Artfully designed, colorful, and funny--especially for those who know King Kong." - Kirkus Reviews
