PAWS: The Trouble With Leo
Author(s): Nathan Fairbairn
Format: Paperback
An adorable graphic novel series about best friends, cute dogs, and all the fun (and trouble) that comes with them. This funny and heartwarming series is The Baby-Sitters Club for pets - and perfect for 8+ fans of Rollergirl and Lottie Brooks.
The girls of PAWS have a bone to pick with a group of rival (BOY! Ugh.) dog walkers . . .
It's been seven whole dog years of PAWS (or just one if you're a human!), and the girls' business is at an all-time high! But after a run-in with Gabby's arch-nemesis, Leo, things take a turn - and Leo leaves the girls with a message: "You're not the only one who can walk dogs..."
Sure enough, it's not long before the PAWS girls notice flyers advertising a new dog walking business, SCAMPS - and Leo is behind it! And when Gabby and Mindy take some not-so-righteous revenge on the boys, what was a little healthy competition turns into an all-out turf war . . .
As the battle between the two groups escalates, with neither side is playing fair, the girls are forced to consider . . . just WHO is the real bad guy here . . . ?
"It's fantastic, it's cute, it's drawn and colored gorgeously, and I think it's going to win a lot of fans. PAWS is here to stay!" - Bryan Lee O'Malley, #1 New York Times bestseller and Eisner award-winning creator of the Scott Pilgrim series
""Reminiscent of Ann M. Martin's The Baby-Sitters Club, this series starter will be a surefire hit with Raina Telgemeier fans and any reader seeking a solid friendship story. Laugh-out-loud funny and full of heart." - School Library Journal, starred review
