My Review:
The Doggos series starts with Simon & Butch, a gripping tale about friendship, loyalty, justice and creative problem-solving.
Although being a top student, third-grader Simon hates going to school for fear of the constant challenges on his way to school: an intimidating dog named Butch and two bad bullies known as the The Baker brothers. Little does Simon know that Butch views him as a friend because the meat sandwiches he tosses is such a treat. When the Baker brothers attack Simon to rob his lunch money, Butch breaks free from the chain and scares the bad boys away.
With relatable scenarios and surprising plot twists, the story keeps young readers intrigued while showing them that appearance can be deceptive in a good way. The growling junkyard dog turns out to be a real hero. It is the sandwich Simon hates that earns him a loyal furry friend. Simon's story suggests the importance of timely communication between children and their parents. Imagine what would happen if Simon has told his mom sooner about the bullying and his preference for vegetarian food?
The book sets itself apart with unique collage style illustrations, which combine comical paintings with real-life images to add humor to the narrative and to create a realistic feel for its setting or background. As a bonus to budding chefs, the book includes two easy-to-follow vegetarian recipes. The Pita Pockets sound particularly scrumptious!
Stimulating and amusing, Simon & Butch certainly makes me want to read more from The Doggos series, which I expect to be a total delight for dog lovers of all ages.
