Description: Move over, Spot. . . . Spoofing classic primers, Max the Dog talks back to the book in a twist that will have fans of funny early readers howling. See Max. Max is not a catóMax is a dog. But much to Maxís dismay, the book keeps instructing readers to ìsee the cat.î How can Max get through to the book that he is a DOG? In a trio of stories for beginning readers, author David LaRochelle introduces the excitable Max, who lets the book know in irresistibly emphatic dialogue that the text is not to his liking. Illustrator Mike Wohnoutka hilariously depicts the pupís reactions to the narrator and to the wacky cast of characters who upend Maxísóand readersíóexpectations as the three stories build to an immensely satisfying conclusion. Hooray, Max, hooray!
