Book Description

August 1, 2003 4 - 8 years
It's time for Mousopolis's First Annual Barbecue Cook-Off. But just when the fun is about to begin, the irresistible aroma of barbecue sauce awakens the most frightening creature known to mousekind: the dreaded Dogzilla. As her horrible doggy breath fills the streets, the residents of Mousopolis must run for their lives. Can they get rid of that big stinky dog before it's too late?

Review

Praise for Dogzilla and Kat Kong:
"These two brazenly funny picture books spoof Godzilla and King Kong as they launch the mice inhabitants of Mousopolis against, respectively, a killer cat and dog. . . . Pilkey's irreverent exuberance is irresistible."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

I couldn't help but laugh out loud when I saw this book in the "staff recommendation" section of my local bookstore. I pulled it off the shelf and read through the whole thing. People passed by me wondering why I was chuckling, then I showed them the pictures and they laughed with me. Who would have thought that little doggie antics would wreak havoc on the poor clever innocent little mice. And all he wanted was the barbeque he was sniffing. I loved the ending too. Because of the one thing the mice didn't count on after they'd driven the devastating doggie away....get this book to find out! You'll laugh as much as I did!

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and clever June 16, 2001
By Cindy
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I first saw a copy of Dogzilla at a dog show in San Diego. It features a Cardigan Welsh Corgi on the cover. Show visitors snapped up the books in a hurry. I bought a copy and have been a Dav Pilkey fan ever since. Children LOVE this book as well as adults. Pilkey's idea of placing cut-out photos of real animal "actors" imposed on colorful, cartoonish paintings of Mousopolis really make the book appealing to little ones. His jokes are "wink-winks" above kid's heads aimed at the adult readers. Dogzilla is funny and spellbinding for little ones who want to read it again and again. If you love smart and imaginative picture books, this one is a "must have" for your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious and Clever September 15, 2000
Format:School & Library Binding
This is one of the cutest juvenile books I have seen. The illustrations are hilarious. The prose is clever and melodramatic. I was laughing out loud when I read it. Highly recommended. It deserves a sequel.
