Dog Diaries: Mission Impawsible

A Middle School Story

By: James Patterson, Steven Butler, Richard Watson

Narrated by: Steven Butler

Grab your sunglasses and slather on the sunscreen! In this laugh-out-loud adventure for kids and animal lovers everywhere, summer is here and Junior is getting his very own doggy vacation.

It's me, Junior, back again with another tail-wagging tale of mischief-making! I'll tell you all about the fur-raising time I had when my pet humans went on a trip without me, and the horrible place they left me. Here are some of the adventures I had:

• How I survived on a diet of icky vegetables, with no yummy, drool-inducing meat in sight!
• My super-secret plan to steal delicious hamburgers!
• How my pooch pals and I cooked up a grand scheme to break free and get back home.

It's a dangerous mission, but as I always say, you can't keep a good dog down!

"Junior is a dog of great enthusiasm [with an] endearingly canine first-dog voice. Watson's numerous cartoon illustrations... perfectly capture Junior's whimsical attitude...This series opener is a romp in the park."
--- Kirkus Reviews

"Bolstered by Watson's spry cartoons, Patterson and Butler's rollicking story will catch--and hold--the attention of young readers, especially those of the dog-loving variety."
--- Publisher's Weekly

"Patterson's tongue-in-cheek humor, accompanied by Butler's comic illustrations, makes this illustrated chapter book a lighthearted 'dog and his boy' story for dog-lovers and fans of Tom Watson's Stick Dog series."
