Petey learns what it means to do good in the seventh Dog Man book from worldwide bestselling author and artist Dav Pilkey. The Supa Buddies have been working hard to help Dog Man overcome his bad habits. But when his obsessions turn to fears, Dog Man finds himself the target of an all-new supervillain! Meanwhile, Petey the Cat has been released from jail and starts a new life with Li'l Petey. But when Petey's own father arrives, Petey must face his past and fight for who he loves. Dav Pilkey's wildly popular Dog Man series appeals to readers of all ages and explores universally positive themes, including empathy, kindness, persistence, and the importance of doing good.

Pilkey does it again. With especially punny and witty commentary re-interpreting Ernest Hemingway's work but also in minor tweaks, like the forever funny recap at the beginning but also the undeniable adorableness of Li'l Petey who always wants to believe in the good, even when he brings Petey's father back and Petey's father ends up stealing all of their things from the house.
The magical moments where Petey and Li'l Petey are looking up at the stars is an illustrative beauty and the messages ring true about finding the beauty in the world where you can. Plus it's not enough to be good, you must also do good.
