Recenzje

Kirkus Best Book of 2021
An ALA 2022 Best Graphic Novels for Children Reading List Selection

Action-packed, clever, and uproariously funny!   Lincoln Peirce, New York Times bestselling author of the Big Nate series

 "Harrell s full-color graphic-novel charmer is over-the-top fun, filled with fast pacing, abundant silliness (pig puns abound!), and a well-developed plot and characters, that nevertheless does not rely on humor as its sole support . . . The social tribulations of being part of a trio of friends will resonate with middle-grade audiences. This is an absolute must-read for fans of Dav Pilkey s Dog Man series. Readers will go hog wild for this lovable hero."  Kirkus, starred review

"Irreverent, animal-based humor drives the segments as art emphasizes close-ups and comic asides to accentuate comedic payoffs. With strong linework and anthropomorphic animal designs reminiscent of Saturday morning cartoons, Harrell s story will delight fans of Dog Man and InvestiGators."  Publishers Weekly

"The book s punny humor, dad jokes, and pure absurdity may win the day here, especially for fans of Captain Underpants or Moyer s Ham Helsing: Vampire Hunter." BCCB
