(3) 1-3 Color by Jose Garibaldi. In this fourth Dog Man graphic novel, fifth graders George and Harold spoof Steinbeck's East of Eden to humorously explore themes of paternal rejection, inherited depravity, and free will; the canine superhero, an action-movie set, and a mechanized hot-dog army all factor in. With Pilkey's customary light touch and child-emulating cartooning style, this hilarious parody is pure genius. "Flip-o-ramas" and drawing instructions included.
