“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.

Book Description:
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.
