This is a fun comic-like story about Tim and Tuffy, a boy and his dog. Everything is great in their world until the cat starts feeding ideas to Tuffy about Tim liking his comic Ultradog more than he likes him, This puts Tuffy in a jealous panic! Now he has to make sure he is better than Ultradog so he doesn’t lose Tim’s love. He goes to great lengths to not lose Tim, hopefully not too far...
I had fun reading this one! I think this would be a fun story for 1st graders.
Thank you to Owl Kids and NetGalley for the opportunity to review this children’s book.

When Tim gets obsessed with superhero Ultra Dog, his dog Fuzzy starts to get worried that Tim loves Ultra Dog more than him. The neighbor cat keeps egging on his worries, so Fuzzy works hard to prove that he’s the best dog and Tim’s favorite. But he can’t seem to do things quite right and then Tim starts talking about going to Ultra Dog’s Ultra Land. Is Fuzzy going to lose his master?

Hidden in this silly story about a dog trying to measure up to a superhero are some very real lessons on how we can jump to false conclusions based on partial information, assumptions, and hearsay. It provides a great opportunity to talk to kids about ways to circumvent needless worries and rumors and get solid answers. The illustrations are an attractive cartoonish style, and kids should find Fuzzy’s antics very entertaining. Recommended for dog lovers, kids who may tend to needlessly worry, and those looking for a book to segue into talking to younger kids about fake news.

I received an ARC of this title from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

It is a fun book. My granddaughter really enjoyed it when I read it to her. . She likes the wit and the art.
