Instead of working on my actual WIP, which has a completed and detailed outline and dozens of pages of world building documents, I have spent the past two days working on a Tale of Despereaux-esque children's novel about an unlucky girl who everyone thinks is a witch.
I can't tell if I just want to procrastinate desperately or if this is genuinely starting off as one of the most charming things I've ever written. I've written like 5k in two days and it's good? My beta reader says it's giving Good Omens energy and being compared to Terry Pratchett is making it hard to let go of it.
Probably going to keep writing that, so now I have two WIPs. For now.

Dog Man by Dav Pilkey
Tumblr media
Genre: Graphic Novel
Targeted Age Group: elementary school age
Summary: Dog Man is a police officer in his town with the head of a dog and the body of a man. He fights crime, especially trying to stop the notorious bad guy Petey the cat from wreaking havoc and taking over the town.
Why I chose this book: I chose this book because I have seen many children at my local library check out Dog Man and its many sequels. As far as I know Dog Man has not won any awards, but how much it is read by children at my library tells me it is a good book. We have at least two copies of each of the books at our library, but they are too well loved to spend much time on the shelves. Another reason I chose this book is because Dav Pilkey is a renowned author for many of his other popular children's books, such as the Captain Underpants series and Caldecott Honor The Paperboy.
Evaluation:
Since Dog Man is a graphic novel, the pictures are an important part of telling the story. In this book, the author uses the pictures to add to the plot of the story. While most pictures in the book have words or dialogue written on them, there are some that have no words. The wordless pictures are still crucial to the story because they show characters' emotions, affect the tone, or add feeling to the story. In the example below, 4 of the 6 panels on the page have no words. The author uses the wordless panels to tell the reader something about Dog Man's personality that is best understood by just a visual.
Tumblr media
Another notable aspect of Dog Man is the writing style and language. Pikley writes the book as if it is written a young boy (about the age of the target audience) writing comics in class. This means that the language is simple and straightforward. As with most graphic novels, there is very little text outside of character dialogue. While some might argue that the lack of "vocabulary words" or complex sentences makes Dog Man "low quality literature", I would argue that the simplicity is an important and definitive aspect of what makes the story likable. Pilkey's use of illustrations along with simple style and language makes the story accessible and enjoyable even to those who might struggle with reading full paragraphs or chapter books.
A third defining feature of Dog Man is the lighthearted and funny mood. Even though Dog Man is fighting the "evil" Petey, no reader would be scared of Petey because the mood of the book is not scary. The target audience for this book (elementary or middle schoolers) is a group that is notorious for not taking things seriously. Therefore, a book that is not serious is a good thing for this audience. Pilkey does a good job of creating a fun and humorous mood by incorporating some jokes that might be considered "immature" by some. But as anyone who has spent time with 9 year old boys can tell you, there is nothing they love more than goofy and immature jokes.
Citation: Pilkey, D. (2016). Dog Man. Graphix, an imprint of Scholastic.

Live like the gerbil
The gerbil does not care for the changes and uncertainty of life, 
The gerbil only cares for keeping its smooth fur clean to shelter it from the sandstorms.
The gerbil does not care for war and violence, 
The gerbil only cares for eating dried bana slices and sharpening its teeth. 
The gerbil does not care for arguing and fighting,
The gerbil only cares for hiding underground in it’s comfortable burrow with the rest of its horde.
The gerbil does not care for money and formality,
The gerbil only cares for chewing its toys and getting snug with its best of acquintances. 
Live like the gerbil and appreciate the small things in life,
you will never find happiness otherwise.
