Loved it!

Thanks to NetGalley & Random House Children's for the early copy in exchange for an honest review。This follows a superhero cat and his scientist sidekick when they foil supervillains' weird plans involving donuts。A weird nitpick, but I really didn't like the font used for the speech bubbles。 Perhaps this is because it's an early copy or something, but it felt really off and didn't belong somehow。 I hope they smooth it out in the final copy。Fans of Dog Man will certainly adore this crime-fighting Thanks to NetGalley & Random House Children's for the early copy in exchange for an honest review。This follows a superhero cat and his scientist sidekick when they foil supervillains' weird plans involving donuts。A weird nitpick, but I really didn't like the font used for the speech bubbles。 Perhaps this is because it's an early copy or something, but it felt really off and didn't belong somehow。 I hope they smooth it out in the final copy。Fans of Dog Man will certainly adore this crime-fighting cat series! 。。。more

Max Meow is back in another adventure with his sidekick Mindy the scientist。 This book brings Big Boss together with two new bad guys, evil versions of Max and Mindy。 Overall, the series is cute。 Short, manageable chapters that all end with cliff-hangers so the kids want to keep reading。 My boys are 6 and 8。 They really enjoyed it。 If your child likes Dog Man or InvestiGators, they will like this。

The first sequel in this series of comic adventures about a super-powered cat。 It's not essential to have read the first one, for there is a handy recap here, before we're straight into it, with unrealistic fireworks, his friend who's reluctant to join him on the front line against crime, and, well, something or someone dastardly to defeat。 It's all brash and exuberant, it's all interrupted (still) by multiple rhetorical questions marking every cliffhanger, as if this was an old kids' serial, or The first sequel in this series of comic adventures about a super-powered cat。 It's not essential to have read the first one, for there is a handy recap here, before we're straight into it, with unrealistic fireworks, his friend who's reluctant to join him on the front line against crime, and, well, something or someone dastardly to defeat。 It's all brash and exuberant, it's all interrupted (still) by multiple rhetorical questions marking every cliffhanger, as if this was an old kids' serial, or a part-book, when it wasn't。 Far better to my mind were the elevator gag, the spoof Danger Room, and most especially "The Twilight Zone"。 But in the right reader's mind, of course, it's a four-star treat。 。。。more

I received an eARC courtesy of Random House & NetGalley, so here is my review。Max Meow is a fun but silly story about a cat who becomes a superhero。 The story is set in a place where animals are like people and Max became a superhero in the first book。 Although some of the back story about Max becoming a superhero is missed by not reading the first book, the second book could stand alone。 Max Meow Book 2 reminds me of cartoon tv shows like Spongebob Square Pants or older graphic novels like Capt I received an eARC courtesy of Random House & NetGalley, so here is my review。Max Meow is a fun but silly story about a cat who becomes a superhero。 The story is set in a place where animals are like people and Max became a superhero in the first book。 Although some of the back story about Max becoming a superhero is missed by not reading the first book, the second book could stand alone。 Max Meow Book 2 reminds me of cartoon tv shows like Spongebob Square Pants or older graphic novels like Captian Underpants。 I appreciated the diversity Max Meow Book 2 included by having a female villain and female side kick who may be more important than just a side kick。 John Gallagher deals with human troubles like jealousy, loyalty, fear, bravery, and friendship well both through the story of the villain and the superheroes。 Throw in an enlarging/shrinking gun and an alternate reality and you have a fun story about an evil squirrel and the superheroes who try to stop her from stealing donuts。 The colors and illustrations of the novel match the tone of the novel。 As a graphic novel should the illustrations carry the story while also adding humor to the plot。 Each chapter ends with a question that prompts readers to predict what might happen and provide a great stopping point if the book were to be read over multiple days。 。。。more

This book is perfect for young kids that want the adventure and fun and just everything。 This author really puts a lot into his books。 I just love the way the cat and friends help others and do things in the story to solve issues by being a hero。 I love the illustrations , I just cannot say enough goodness about this book。 It is adorable and I will sure be getting a couple copies for our library and a personal copy for my grandkids。 This is the type of book that young kids need to read especiall This book is perfect for young kids that want the adventure and fun and just everything。 This author really puts a lot into his books。 I just love the way the cat and friends help others and do things in the story to solve issues by being a hero。 I love the illustrations , I just cannot say enough goodness about this book。 It is adorable and I will sure be getting a couple copies for our library and a personal copy for my grandkids。 This is the type of book that young kids need to read especially if they love comics and novels are still too much for them 。。。more

Max Meow, Cat on the Street, is back again with his best friend and scientist Mindy。 After having received superhero powers in the previous book he becomes the Cat Crusader and fights crime and defeats evil。 In this book, Max must find a way to defeat both Big Boss (the most adorable evil squirrel you've ever seen), while also fighting his evil self from an alternate reality。 I think kids will really like this book for it's bright colors, funny characters, and uplifting story line。 Adults will a Max Meow, Cat on the Street, is back again with his best friend and scientist Mindy。 After having received superhero powers in the previous book he becomes the Cat Crusader and fights crime and defeats evil。 In this book, Max must find a way to defeat both Big Boss (the most adorable evil squirrel you've ever seen), while also fighting his evil self from an alternate reality。 I think kids will really like this book for it's bright colors, funny characters, and uplifting story line。 Adults will also like it because there are MANY references that would be too old for the intended readers, but still add to the fun of the book。 There are also many puns, which I appreciated。 I liked the questions at the end of the chapters as it gives the reader something to think about, but because it became a running gag instead of actually being answered, it lost appeal。 Definitely something for your 3rd-5th grader who likes superheroes and thinks about becoming one themselves。Also, Reggie is my favorite and I would like to be his friend。 。。。more

Max is just getting used to having his super powers。 The villain looks like Max and wants to take the world's donut supply。 Can Max and Mindy save the day with everyone thinking they are the bad guys?This is like Dog Man for cat people。 This book has everything my middle schoolers are looking for in a book。 It is ridiculously fun。 I love this series so much and told my local comic shop that they needed to order the entire series。It is witty and perfect for students。 The teacher in me loves that Max is just getting used to having his super powers。 The villain looks like Max and wants to take the world's donut supply。 Can Max and Mindy save the day with everyone thinking they are the bad guys?This is like Dog Man for cat people。 This book has everything my middle schoolers are looking for in a book。 It is ridiculously fun。 I love this series so much and told my local comic shop that they needed to order the entire series。It is witty and perfect for students。 The teacher in me loves that the larger vocabulary words are defined and the attention to detail。 For example, on page 17 you see a giant penguin and you learn that there are people in the eyes controlling the it。 If you go back to the first time you see the robot, what I thought were pupils in the eyes are actually penguin shaped people。I could not stop laughing and will be buying both a copy for me and a copy for my classroom。Creative Team: Creator: John GallagherPublished by Random House 。。。more

I'm going to start by saying, I'm not the target audience for these books。 Quite honestly, while I like a good graphic novel or comic book, my tastes run more towards Marvel superheroes。 That said, these books will be hugely popular with my elementary students who love Dog Man or the Bad Guys series。 These books mix humor and action in equal parts。 I do love that the superheroes are not perfect and learn from their mistakes。 I will definitely be ordering this series for my library。Thanks to the I'm going to start by saying, I'm not the target audience for these books。 Quite honestly, while I like a good graphic novel or comic book, my tastes run more towards Marvel superheroes。 That said, these books will be hugely popular with my elementary students who love Dog Man or the Bad Guys series。 These books mix humor and action in equal parts。 I do love that the superheroes are not perfect and learn from their mistakes。 I will definitely be ordering this series for my library。Thanks to the publisher and to Net Galley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for my honest review。 。。。more
