Watch Dog Man and Meet the #1 worldwide bestselling author and illustrator, DAV PILKEY!
Books of Wonder is thrilled to partner with AMC Lincoln Square 13 and Scholastic for this special screening celebrating the release of the highly anticipated-canine-crime fighting film adaptation of Dog Man.
When a faithful police dog and his human police officer owner are injured on the job, a harebrained but life-saving surgery fuses the two of them together and Dog Man is born. Dog Man is sworn to protect and serve--and fetch, sit, and roll over.
As Dog Man embraces his new identity and strives to impress his Chief, he must stop the pretty evil plots of feline supervillain Petey the Cat. Petey's latest plan is to clone himself, creating the kitten Li'l Petey, to double his ability to do crime stuff.
But when Li'l Petey falls into the clutches of a common enemy, Dog Man and Petey reluctantly join forces in an action-packed race against time to rescue the young kitten.
After the screening, DAV PILKEY, author and illustrator of the #1 NY Times bestselling graphic novel series Dog Man that inspired the film, will be making a special appearance to Meet & Greet fans of all ages!
