paulinemaria's review against another edition
I'm trying to determine if these books are copaganda or if they are simply long drawn-out poop and fart joke books. I'm leaning towards the latter, especially considering that Dog Man's animalistic behavior results in destruction and inconvenience for the rude and prejudiced cops at the police HQ. I would maybe deem Dog Man and Captain Underpants vigilantes in the style of Dennis the Menace - lovable rascals. I also think it's great that they fight fire with silliness. The laughs are a mile a minute and Pilkey never misses an opportunity for a sight gag. I really appreciate these books for exposing younger generations to the pleasures of slapstick comedy.

These are some of the smartest and funniest kids' books we've read. They are silly but smart and introduce children to higher level concepts in a subtle way. Ijust wish Dog Man wasn't a cop.

Our heroes face their darkest days yet in this sixth installment! Luckily Lil Petey is around with lots of poop jokes to lighten the load... Loved the claymation in this one, the unique vocabulary, the silly antics, and the seriously heartwarming message most of all.
