Product Description

What would happen if a dog became a superhero?

In this exciting middle grade adventure, Joe is a run-of-the-puppy-mill cocker spaniel who dreams of being special, but suffers with the curse of being average. He lives in the suburbs of Barksdale with his friends Elwood, a dopey mutt who looks like a genetic mishap, and Frank, a plump wiener dog. When the dogs devour heaping mounds of dog food that is laced with plutonium, their DNA evolves. Joe transforms into MegaDog, a superhero with a passion for funky music. Elwood mutates into Baywolf, a sleek, black and white wolf with a hip-hop attitude, and Frank becomes a gadget guru.

In a palatial penthouse in the Crump Tower, Mr. Wrinkles, a power-hungry shar-pei, and his assistant, Pavlov, a mastiff with a drooling problem, create dog collars that contain mind-control devices. Inciting a canine revolution, Mr. Wrinkles wreaks havoc across the country. MegaDog and Baywolf must stop Mr. Wrinkles before he seizes control of the U.S. Government and the rest of the world.

Perfect For Teen and Pre-teen Boys
My ten- and thirteen-year-old boys laughed out loud through the whole book. Alderman has captured a great story on paper that has elements of older kid lit with pacing and excitement that the video-game generation is used to.

It's often hard to buy gifts for kids (particularly boys) in this age group. Look no further. This is it.

MegaDog: Unleash the Power
It was just so funny especially the names like Snogglebugger and the guy who tried to roast a marshmallow over the radioactive core!
