Knuckle and Potty are tired of being lovable book characters. Together, they hatch a plan to venture to the Outer-world by clicking their heels and leaping off the pages into real life to confront the author and illustrator who created them. When that plan fails, a trip to Happy World is their last option. Simple: they'll just erase Happy World with their de-zonker contraptions. Little do Knuckle and Potty know that Happy World isn't as happy as they think.

The end has come. The world is in shambles. Everyone is gone . . . except for the dogs! 
Brownie and Apollo are two dogs living in bliss with a big, comfy couch to laze on. But unbeknownst to them and seemingly overnight, the world has turned to utter chaos. What they do know is their owners are MIA, they are starting to get on each other's nerves, and it's dinner time. What has happened? Who will feed them? What if their people are gone for good?!
With bellies rumbling, Brownie and Apollo decide to set out into the wide world, where they discover other pets and stray animals who have been left behind. But not everyone is man's best friend. It's a dog-eat-dog world now! With the help of a friendly neighborhood police dog and a small but mighty side-kick tick, Apollo and Brownie must figure out how to survive these dark times and locate their ultimate goal: dinner!

Apocalypse Bow Wow

Bloomsbury USA Childrens

Brownie, Apollo, and their ragtag group of strays have raided the grocery store and defeated some very mean mutts--but now they've run out of food. So when the crew discovers a nearby Twonkies factory, and all the Twonkies they could ever eat, they think they've got it made. 
The only catch is the cat guarding the factory--and this "cat" is MUCH bigger, and far more sophisticated, than any feline they've ever met. Can the dogs and their friends defeat their foe and claim the Twonkies for themselves?
The Proimos father-son team returns with another irreverent, dog-filled take on the apocalypse, told in a graphic novel paper-over-board format. The instantly accessible artwork and laughs on each page will charm everyone from the most reluctant reader to the coolest of cats (humans and animals alike)!

Apocalypse Meow Meow

It's the end of the world . . . but not for dogs! Humans have disappeared into thin air. Fires are raging everywhere. Animals are acting crazy. And dog buddies Brownie and Apollo can't find their owners. With bellies rumbling, the two decide to make their way into the strange outside world.
Will Brownie and Apollo assemble the remaining canines of the world and create a new, better society for all? Probably not. Will they make some friends out there and learn to live on their own? Maybe. Will they find dinner?? A dog can only hope . . .
In the vein of Tom Angleberger and Lincoln Peirce comes a funny, furry, and utterly unique animal tale that's perfect for reluctant readers.
