Dog Diaries Series

by ,
(66 reviews)

Dog Diaries is a laugh out loud illustrated series, told from a dog's perspective, that is perfect for newly independent readers aged 6+.

The Dog Diaries books are co-written by James Patterson and Steven Butler and illustrated by Richard Watson. Patterson is the author of many bestselling series for children’s and adults including the Middle School books and is passionate about children’s literacy, driven by the firm belief that “There’s no such thing as a kid who hates reading. There are kids who love reading, and kids who are reading the wrong books”.  Steven Butler is the much-loved author of the Nothing to See Here Hotel books and The Wrong Pong series.

The Dog Diaries books follow the pawsome adventures of Junior the dog - the beloved pet of Rafe (who some readers may know from the Middle School series!) and the Khatchadorians or, as Junior calls them, "Catch-a-doggy-bones". Kids will love Junior's take on the family's adventures from camping in the woods, to holidays like CRISP-MOUTH and FANGS-GIVING. 

There are now six books in the series, which you can read in any order but we recommend starting with the first book Dog Diaries.
