'Political cartoonist First Dog on the Moon's debut book for children is a delightfully absurd metatextual picture book/graphic novel hybrid ... The manic and playful energy of First Dog's regular one-page cartoons for the Guardian Australia newspaper is successfully carried over into this long-form story. Also carried over are their social conscience, their passion for changing the world and their frustration at both political corruption and the apathy of the general populace. This whimsical, fun book will be fully enjoyed by children who are fans of Dav Pilkey's Dog Man books or Andy Griffiths and Terry Denton's Treehouse series. It is also a great way for parents to inspire conversations with their children about the complexities of contemporary environmental politics.' Books+Publishing
