"Squid Kid and Katydid," "Baby Frog Squad," "Monster Cheese Sandwich," "Birds Flowers Trees: A Haiku Photo Comic," and other mini-comics are featured as stories-within-the-story, each done in a different style, utilizing humor and drama, prose and poetry, illustrated in different media including acrylics, pastels, colored pencils, felt-tip markers, clay, hand-made cardboard sculptures, photographs, pipe cleaners, construction paper collages, and cookies. This heartfelt, humorous, and thoughtful graphic novel by award-winning author and artist Dav Pilkey will have readers of all ages laughing and motivated to unleash their own creativity.

I'm disappointed how much this book, which is the first in the series, fails to explain who all the characters are but seems to assume readers have read the Dogman books (which are awesome and kids should read them!) and will already know. But its wonderful regardless; it presents many styles of comics and deals with censorship in a supa kid-friendly way.
