What does the Pageticker team say about Cat Kid Comic Club: Perspectives?

Cat Kid Comic Club: Perspectives is classic Dav Pilkey: gloriously silly, visually inventive and sneakily thoughtful. The baby frogs’ mini-comics celebrate creativity while the story explores empathy, teamwork and the fact that two characters can look at the same problem and see completely different things. Ideal for children who enjoy graphic novels and making their own comics; expect plenty of toilet humour and chaotic behaviour.
