What does the Pageticker team say about Dog Man - A Tale Of Two Kitties?

More fast pace, energetic artwork and wonderfully silly humour in this third-in-a-series. Petey’s kitten clone brings plenty of chaos, while the story also explores kindness, family and the idea that people can choose to change. It is a strong choice for children aged 6–10, especially fans of graphic novels and reluctant readers, although some cartoon peril, fighting and cheeky jokes may not suit every child.
