Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog

Written by Tom Watson

Narrated by Andrew Eiden

Perfect for fans of the Dog Man, Big Nate, Timmy Failure, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, Stick Dog and his friends are back, and they're hungrier than ever!

As the dogs embark on their quest for hot dogs, they learn they're not the only ones on a mission—a band of raccoons is following close behind, and they're ravenous, too!

In this second book in the series, Stick Dog and his four friends, Poo-Poo, Mutt, Stripes, and Karen, must execute a master plan for stealing hot dogs. The closer they get to the hot dog vendor, the more difficult their mission becomes.

The five dogs are met with many funny challenges along the way, including having to distract the frankfurter guy and Karen getting locked in a human's house. No matter what, these dogs have their eyes—and stomachs—on the prize.

With hilarious text, reluctant readers will eat this one up! 

Other favorites in the series include Stick Dog Dreams of Ice Cream, Stick Dog Chases a Pizza, and many more!

Tom Watson

Tom Watson lives in Chicago with his wife, daughter, and son. He also has a dog, as you could probably guess. The dog is a Labrador-Newfoundland mix. Tom says he looks like a Labrador with a bad perm. He wanted to name the dog "Put Your Shirt On" (please don't ask why), but he was outvoted by his family. The dog's name is Shadow. Early in his career Tom worked in politics, including a stint as the chief speechwriter for the governor of Ohio. This experience helped him develop the unique, storytelling narrative style of the Stick Dog books. More important, Tom's time in politics made him realize a very important thing: Kids are way smarter than adults. And it's a lot more fun and rewarding to write stories for them than to write speeches for grown-ups.

Reviews for Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog

[sparkleponies · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Having read the first Stick Dog which is about hamburgers its not surprising that book two is all about hot dogs and book three will be all about cheese pizza. The main character and his poorly drawn canine companions live at the park and their attempts to keep their tummies full are narrated and illustrated by author Tom Watson. The story is as funny as Captain Underpants but it relies less on bathroom humor. I enjoyed all the puns and definitions used by the dogs and the narrator.
