In the Cat Kid Comic Club, Li'l Petey, Flippy, and Molly help twenty-one spirited, funny, and talented baby frogs learn to express themselves through comics. The adventures unwind with mishaps and hilarity as the creative baby frogs experience the mistakes and progress that come with practice and persistence.
The Cat Kid Comic Club Collection includes the first, second, and third graphic novels in the Cat Kid Comic Club series: Cat Kid Comic Club, Cat Kid Comic Club: Perspectives, and Cat Kid Comic Club: On Purpose. Author and illustrator Dav Pilkey breaks new ground, using a variety of artistic techniques and media -- including acrylic paints, colored pencils, Japanese calligraphy, photography, collage, gouache, and watercolors -- to bridge the storylines and portray the frogs' perspectives and purpose. "Squid Kid and Katydid," "Baby Frog Squad," "Monster Cheese Sandwich," "The Under Werewolves," and "Skelopup" are just a few of the mini-comics featured in this three-book extravaganza.
And don't forget Dav Pilkey's other worldwide bestselling series: Dog Man and Captain Underpants!
