My son loved this book. He wants all of them now! He doesn’t like reading very much so to find a book that’s he loved was amazing. It is more of a comic book style but overall a great book
Funny books!

Hilarious! My kids laughed, I laughed, it’s very well written and the drawings are so expressive. My 5yo wants to read it everyday. Even my 3yo finds it funny.
Excellent boy for boys who like Dog Man

My son loved this book and previously he wanted to read only DogMan or Capt Underpants and he has read both of those series a couple times. During my WFH, I can actually try to get him to read a book a day while out of school for the summer. He read this one cover to cover and it is the first in the series. I went ahead and bought him three more from the series. He just finished 1st grade but reads a much higher reading level. This series is quite funny as well and I catch him laughing out loud during my calls and it makes me smile.
