Description
A boxed set of the first three graphic novels in the Cat Kid Comic Club series, from the bestselling author of Dog Man! Join Li'l Petey, Flippy, and Molly as they help twenty-one baby frogs learn to express themselves through comics, leading to hilarious mishaps and heartfelt adventures.
The Cat Kid Comic Club Collection includes the first three graphic novels in the series: Cat Kid Comic Club, Cat Kid Comic Club: Perspectives, and Cat Kid Comic Club: On Purpose. Author and illustrator Dav Pilkey uses a variety of artistic techniques—including acrylic paints, colored pencils, photography, and collage—to portray the frogs' perspectives. 'Squid Kid and Katydid,' 'Baby Frog Squad,' and 'Monster Cheese Sandwich' are just a few of the mini-comics featured in this three-book extravaganza.
Pilkey deftly applies his trademark sly mix of revelation and in-your-face zaniness in busy, froglet-filled panels that take advantage of the anthology format to showcase comics' versatility. Mind-bending, in the best possible way.

When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books -- the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants. In the second grade, Dav's teacher ripped up his comics and told him he couldn't spend the rest of his life making silly books. Fortunately, Dav was not a very good listener.
Cuando Dav Pilkey era niño, le diagnosticaron TDAH y dislexia. Dav era tan disruptivo en clase que sus maestros lo hacían sentarse en el pasillo todos los días. Por suerte, a Dav le encantaba dibujar e inventar historias. Pasaba su tiempo en el pasillo creando sus propios cómics originales: las primeras aventuras de Hombre Perro y el Capitán Calzoncillos. En segundo grado, la maestra de Dav rompió sus cómics y le dijo que no podía pasar el resto de su vida haciendo libros tontos. Afortunadamente, Dav no era muy bueno escuchando.
