Recommended reading order
Read the Dog Man books in publication order, starting with Dog Man (2016). Each volume builds on the characters and storylines introduced before it, and several running arcs — especially those involving Petey and his son Li'l Petey — pay off most satisfyingly when read in sequence. The related Cat Kid Comic Club spin-off series can be enjoyed alongside the main series after book 10.
