Product Description
by Rick Stromoski (Author)
A buddy adventure through the forest, starring two best-pal pooches!
Two best-friend dogs, Schnozzer (the smart one) and Tatertoes (the cheerful one), set off into the forest on a journey to visit Tatertoes's mom. Along their adventure, they encounter bees, bears, quicksand, characters from fairy tales, something called "nose spiders," and lots of yo-yo action.Their adventures are told as a series of vignettes, propelled by easygoing but giggle-inducing humor. That plus Rick Stromoski's lush, illustrative style and charming character designs make for page-turning, chuckle-filled reading.
Praise for Schnozzer & Tatertoes: Take a Hike!: "This is a joyous, uproarious, early-reader graphic novel that has a laugh count that's as high as the first InvestiGators graphic novel. Take A Hike! operates in that early graphic novel space that lower to upper-elementary school kids crave. It's relentlessly silly, has chapters to provide confidence to those young ages, full-color illustrations, and effortlessly entertains readers whose minds can easily be distracted." --Daddy Mojo
"Delightfully funny and totally engaging. (And Tatertoes is tops!)"--Terri Libenson, author of the Emmie & Friends series
"Take A Hike is the best buddy comedy in years. And! It stars two dogs."--Judd Winick, author of the Hilo series
"If you like funny, silly dogs (and who doesn't), this book is for you!"--Patrick McDonnell, Mutts cartoonist and author of Me . . . Jane
"Schnozzer and Tatertoes are a hoot! Adventure, friendship, AND snacks? Count me in!"--Rob Harrell, author of Wink and Batpig
