BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Mayor Good Boy is going to be in a movie! Everything is going great until items start going missing all over town. Someone even steals the movie equipment. It’s up to Mayor Good Boy and his interns, siblings Abby and Aaron to help figure out who is stealing the town’s belongings and why. Yes, the mayor is a dog, but he’s fluffy and cute and apparently kinder than most people. Except for his weakness for food, he’s nearly perfect.

Scheidt"s story is pretty straightforward without many surprises, but it has some nice themes of friendship and second chances that are refreshing. The graphic art is well done and colorful, and I just may vote for a dog.
