“Curious about the widespread popularity of Dog Man, I have now read a couple, and I would not recommend these to my young readers. While there's no arguing they include clever moments of wit, much of the humor is slap-stick and abrasive, and the illustrations are pointedly cartoonish, hyperbolized, and unrefined.”
