This was a little tense hearing about damage in a museum but I am sure kids won't have the same reaction

The audiobooks of this series are read so well! I like this one a lot with the dogs' view of acting.

I would highly recommend the audio version of this book to anyone who will be traveling in the car with a variety of ages. Both my 14 year old and my 10 year old were laughing out loud at the story and the voices that were used. It was so enjoyable!!!!

Julie Falatko is at it again with this amazing and hilarious chapter book! From the perspective of dogs, Falatko has captured the thought process of a dog (as humans perceive it, anyway) beautifully. Even the writing style feels as though a dog wrote the book. It's truly a canine masterpiece that had me giggling from cover to cover. Meatball!

4 stars because this book made me laugh out loud *way* too many times to deserve anything lower.
This was a very goofy, charming tale about what we all wish we could've done as kids, find a way to smuggle our pets into class with us. The scenes where their boy seems to really cheer up due to their presence just made my heart ache so bad in the best way possible. Really enjoyed the characters and the narrative, though it did stretch thin a bit here and there - and at the end of every other chapter, I kept wondering, so what about that project he's supposed to finish? When is that due exactly?
There's some really cute illustrations on most pages as well, which can make the reading feel very fun/rewarding for kids :) very cute book, would recommend for some laughs.

A great chapter book for kids looking to break away from reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid for the 10th time. Fun and funny. The author completely enjoys thinking like a dog and the humor is perfect for any animal lovers. Nice side story about friendship too.

My daughter enjoyed this book as she said it had a funny concept with dogs going to school. Fans of Captain Underpants will probably love this book as well.
As an adult, I didn’t find the story pulled me in. I also couldn’t imagine how a talking dog could go to school. Surely someone would notice a hairy student with a snout. However, I would still recommend this to elementary aged readers. I enjoyed the humor throughout the book. I just wouldn’t chose this one to read by myself.

Absolutely necessary reading right now. I needed the joyful, hilarious hijinks of Sassy and Waldo as they go to school to take care of their boy, Stewart - and try to understand the strange thing that is school - excelling at gym and lunch, of course... I listened to the audiobook which is narrated by Oliver Wyman but feels like a full cast. (I also have been attending Julie's instagram live reading, which are also giving me life.) If you're looking for a hilarious, distracting, wonderful book to share with readers of all ages, I highly recommend the entire Two Dogs in a Trench Coat series!

Cute and funny. A friendship story, a dog story, and a squirrel story, believe it or not. A crazy premise kids will love!
