If you liked Dog Man…you are not alone! Dav Pilkey’s Dog Man series has been an absolute hit since the first one came out in 2016. According to Scholastic, “the series has more than 40 million copies in print to date with 42 foreign language editions.” People all over the world love Dog Man and his friends. So much so that their story has been turned into a musical and an animated movie (to be released in January of 2025). We here at the library love Dog Man so much that we’re hosting a program about him on August 14! Personally, one of the most common questions I receive at the Children’s Desk here at the library is where to find the well-known series. Clearly, Pilkey is popular. But sometimes people love him so much that there are no copies of his books left in the library! What are you supposed to read then? Or perhaps you’ve already read through the entire series multiple times and are ready for something new. We have a huge collection of books, and trying to find one that you’ll like can be overwhelming. In either case, we’ve got you covered. I’ve created a list of books that fill the same niche as Dog Man does. While all of the books on that list are full of action and laughs, I definitely have my favorites.
