Action and mystery abound on the movie set in the fourth Dog Man book from worldwide bestselling author and artist Dav Pilkey. Will these heroes stay hot on the trail, or will they be thrown off the scent and start barking up the wrong tree?
The following versions of the books were used to create this study guide: Pilkey, Dav. Dog Man: A Tale of Two Kitties. Graphix, Scholastic, New York, 2017. Kindle AZW file. Pilkey, Dav. Dog Man and Cat Kid. Graphix, Scholastic, New York, 2018. Kindle AZW file. Petey is trying to make his son turn evil, and Sarah reports the first shooting of The Dog-Man. Then come Ding-Dong Magoo as Dog Man, Yolay Caprese as Sarah, Samson J. Johnson as "Chief", and Scooter McRibs as Petey. The Crew shows Mrs. Suspicionflame and Sarah, and Li'l Petey and Zuzu around. Mrs. Suspicionflame (Petey), had made Sarah look out to steal the remote after the guy leaves for lunch. Petey dumped the old lady disguise and created a really evil costume for him and Li'l Petey. That was the origin of "Cat Kid".This book is appropriate for young children because there are few words. I think the illustrations of this book are great for children because they are not the most extravagant. I also think this book allows children to open their creative mind. Imagine my glee when, a decade later, I find a comic book by the same authors in the university bookstore. Finishing this book as solidified my previous statement of this being a work of art. The simplistic art melded with wonderful storytelling really made this a favorite. Cat Kids villain arc and subsequent redemption arc has to be one of my favorite developments in fiction. I truly felt hatred for Petey and his manipulation of Cat Kid. Emotions were conveyed incredibly and made me feel for each and every one of the characters, especially Dog Man when he was called a “bad boy” (which he is not, of course). Dog Mans emotional expression was one of my favorites, he doesn’t talk so it’s all conveyed through body language and expression, and it is done so artfully. I also believe this book handles social issues well, including the sexism Yolay experienced at the hand of the director and Peteys negative view of robots. This book was also very inclusive of all different types of species (people, italians, cats, dogs, robots). I really loved Cat Kids and 80-HDs relationship and development as well. The lesson at the end of the book almost made me tear up.
Dav's stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, empathy, and the triumph of the good-hearted. Dog Man: A Tale of Two Kitties and Cat Kid Summary & Study Guide includes comprehensive information and analysis to George and Harold are in fifth grade, and are now reading East of Eden, which inspired them to create a new Dog Man book. When Petey went to the Cannery Grow, he finds Dippy working there and he shout for a cannery grow. Dippy has trouble counting from 1 to 10 because during the first book, Petey made the words of the books disappear and it made Dippy brainless. Petey yells at her to hurry up and it made Dippy lose count and she had to start all over. 22 minutes Dippy finally got to 10 and Petey was so tired. He asked for a cannery grow, but Dippy asked him 3 questions and Petey kept yelling "No!" and yelled at Dippy. Dippy told Petey that he was not a very nice guy and that she was doing her job. Then it made her sad that she said "All I wanted to do was help you." When she started crying she said "I tried my best but..." She started blubbering sadly " Ya didn't have to be so mean!" "All ya had to do was ask nicely" "I Have feelings ya know." Petey aplogizes and asks nicely for a cannery grow and Dippy tells him dumbly that they are closed. Petey took one of them rudely which makes Dippy want to call 9-1-1. But she never succeeds.While Mrs. Suspicionflame sings, Lil Petey removes the wig off her head, revealing that Mrs. Suspicionflame is actually Petey in disguise and continues to fix 80-HD. Petey discovers that 80-HD has solar panels and no missiles. LP explains that 80-HD doesn't need missiles, because he thinks 80-HD is his friend, but Petey claims that 80-HD is not his friend. 80-HD obeys Li'l Petey, but it doesn't mean it his friend, Petey states. Petey wants to have a talk with Li'l Petey, and he'll buy him some ice cream. Once there, Li'l Petey wants a place in the house to store the stuff. Dog Man leads everyone to the elevator and lets Li'l Petey press the button. Surprised that there is a Grand Ballroom, he presses that, and soon, they are greeted by a room filled with balls. They worked and played until it was bedtime. When a new kitty sitter arrives and a glamorous movie starlet goes missing, it's up to Dog Man and Cat Kid to save the day!
