Dog Man 2 - The Adventures of Dog Man 2 (Unleashed) - Dav Pilkey

In Dog Man: Unleashed, Dav Pilkey takes the action and absurdity up a notch. Our half-dog, half-human cop hero returns — but this time, the villains are weirder, the gadgets are wackier, and the stakes are hilariously higher. When Petey’s latest evil plan involves a mind-boosted fish named Flippy and his flat paper clone Flat Petey, the city is thrown into outrageous turmoil.

With his loyal heart and clumsy courage, Dog Man must navigate tanks, mind-control, and one very angry psychic fish to restore peace. This fast-paced comic-style novel uses visual humor, flip-o-rama effects, and quirky storytelling to keep kids hooked from start to finish.
