Remy Lai, the award-winning creator of Pie in the Sky makes her middle-grade graphic novel debut, Pawcasso, about the unexpected friendship between the loneliest girl in class and the coolest canine in town. "It's tail-wagging entertaining!" Kelly Yang, New York Times bestselling author of Front Desk Every Saturday, Pawcasso trots into town with a basket, a shopping list, and cash in paw to buy groceries for his family. One day, he passes eleven-year-old Jo, peering out the window of her house, bored and lonely. Astonished by the sight of an adorable basket-toting dog on his own, Jo follows Pawcasso, and when shes seen alongside him by a group of kids from her school, they mistake her for Pawcassos owner. Excited to make new friends, Jo reluctantly hides the truth and agrees to let her dog model for an art class the kids attend. What could go wrong? But what starts as a Chihuahua-sized lie quickly grows Great Dane-sized when animal control receives complaints about a dog roaming the streets off-leash. With Pawcassos freedom at stake, is Jo willing to spill the truth and risk her new friendships? "A beautifully drawn and delightful story bursting with art, books, and fun!" Maria Scrivan, New York Times bestselling author of Nat Enough and Forget Me Nat

4 ⭐ This is a great early graphic novel. A little girl follows a dog as it goes shopping one day. And then when they go to the library, everyone thinks the dog belongs to her, so she gives it the name Pawcasso. She pulls this off for the entire summer, but eventually the girl and the town have to find out who the real owner of Pawcasso is, and why they need to be on a leash. This book was fun.
