Apocalypse Meow Meow
Description
This hilarious graphic novel sequel about the end of the world . . . and the dogs left behind will have fans of Dog Man and Diary of a Wimpy Kid barking with laughter!
Brownie, Apollo, and their ragtag group of strays have raided the grocery store and defeated some very mean mutts, but now the worst has happened: they've run out of food! When the crew discovers an empty Twonkies factory filled with all the Twonkies they could ever eat, it seems like paradise . . . The only catch is the cat guarding the factory--and this "cat" is MUCH bigger and scarier than any feline they've ever met. Can the dogs and their friends defeat their foe and claim their Twonkies treasure? The Proimos father-son team returns with another lively, dog-filled take on the apocalypse, told in a graphic novel format that will charm even the coolest of cats (humans and animals alike)!Product Details
