Dog Man: World Book Day 2020

This early chapter book delivers three action-packed stories featuring the beloved half-dog, half-human hero in a format perfect for emerging readers.

Children who gravitate toward fast-paced stories with plenty of visual cues will find themselves eagerly turning pages. It's the kind of book that naturally fosters a love of reading through laughter and accomplishment.
