review: Editorial Reviews Review Praise for the Dragon series: * "Dragon never disappoints... The series hero is affability incarnate." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review"Since nothing is actually easy for a beginner to read, what more could we ask for newcomers than the intrinsic reward of a genuinely funny book? Again and again Pilkey delivers." -- Booklist "Genuinely warmhearted." -- Kirkus Reviews From the Back Cover 'Dragon adopts a stray cat and learns by trial and error how to care for it. Once again, our hero... makes a number of mistakes and experiences a range of emotions along the way, and as before, his good heart is rewarded in the end... The Dragon series is fast moving toward that pantheon of children's reading reserved for books that make kids laugh out loud.' - Starred review, Booklist. About the Author When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books -- the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants. In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to write and illustrate for kids. He took her advice and created his first book, World War Won , which won a national competition in 1986. Dav made many other books before being awarded the California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath (1994) and the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy (1996). In 2002, Dav published his first full-length graphic novel for kids, called The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby . It was both a USA Today and New York Times bestseller. He has published more than seventy books for children, including the bestselling Dog Man and Cat Kid Comic Club graphic novels. Dav's stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, empathy, and the triumph of the good-hearted. When he is not making books for kids, Dav loves to kayak with his wife in the Pacific Northwest. Read more
