Sophie: Frankenstein's Hound: A Graphic Novel, Vol.2
"Sophie is the perfect mix of heart, humor, and hilarity!" - Lincoln Peirce, creator of Big Nate
From the creator the much-loved webcomic, "Dog Eat Doug," Sophie is a hilarious new graphic novel series, a sendup of family life from the perspective of one snarky dog who wants nothing more than to have everything--without ever having to share.
Life is good when you're a dog and you have humans all to yourself. But what about when a new baby enters the picture . . . along with a couple of cats intent on taking over the world?
Full of mini adventures, pop culture spoofs, sharp jokes, adorable illustrations, and a sneaky dose of heart, Jurassic Bark and Frankenstein's Hound are the perfect introduction to these characters and their world. Just right for the pet-obsessed among us no matter the age, while simultaneously appealing to the kids who love to giggle at Big Nate, Dog Man, Garfield, and Snoopy.

Praise for this book
". . .harkens back to those heady days of Calvin and Hobbes" -- School Library Journal
"Doggy delights continue. Bak! In a dozen loosely linked chapters with titles like "The Bark Knight" and "Cat-ificial Intelligence," sudden imaginary costume changes mark further high and low moments in Sophie's ongoing relationships with an expanding cast of arrivals--from eloquent, if monosyllabic, toddler Doug ("Bak!") to several shelter dogs fostered by the household's humans. Along with borrowing characters and running themes from the original webcomic, these fresh episodes preserve both its sly brand of humor and solid-gold values on the way to a cozy closing snoozefest. . . " --Kirkus Reviews
"Sophie is the perfect mix of heart, humor, and hilarity!" --Lincoln Peirce, creator of Big Nate
"These are great! Very Calvin and Hobbes in tone. Episodic chapters full of fantastical adventures starring a baby, dogs, cats, and squirrels. Readers will absolutely love these--get multiple copies!" --Teen Librarian Toolbox (Hosted by School Library Journal)
"Here's something fun...For doggie GN kids, this will be right up their alley." --A Fuse #8 Production, Betsy Bird (School Library Journal)
