The comic duo that brought you I Don't Want to Be a Frog is back, with Chip the dog, a hilarious new character who's got some "wisdom" to share.

Are you a dog in need of advice? Fear not: Chip the dog is ON IT in this super-silly guide to living your best canine life. Chip is seven; he knows things. Like what to eat (important papers, the fancy bird the humans cooked for the fancy dinner, Grandpa’s teeth), and what not to eat (bees). He won’t get those mixed up, will he?

Pet lovers will see their own goofy fur-friends in Chip's earnest yet ridiculous antics, and readers who love funny animal stories will find their next favorite book buddy with Chip the dog, who's patiently waiting to eat your homework and slobber on your clothes.

Cute and funny story

Reviewed in the United States on 24 June 2022

Verified Purchase

I bought this for my grandchildren mostly because it’s told by Chip the Dog. Our dog’s name is Chip. I thought we’d read it to them. No way! Our 6 yo grandson started reading it before we could. He and his 5 yo sister loved it! Lots of laughs! Cute story!

It's not often that everyone in our house agrees that a picture book is a hit, but this one nailed it.

A Patient Parent

Chip the dog has a very high FQ

Reviewed in the United States on 6 June 2022

Verified Purchase

I think this is the most entertaining book yet from the Dev Petty & Mike Boldt team. Chip the dog insists that he’s smart – smart enough to be a life coach to all the other dogs out there sagely encouraging them to do things like wear grandpa’s false teeth or shred the little person’s homework or swipe & eat the Thanksgiving turkey. Page after hilarious page in this book show that Chip’s dog IQ in fact is extremely low and that his advice is best not followed – except for his advice to not eat bees which he himself (as will be seen) had to learn the hard way. But Chip’s FQ (funny quotient) is off the charts, and the kids and grownups who read this are in for a treat. Highly recommended.

Adorable Book!

Reviewed in the United States on 8 July 2022

Verified Purchase

I bought this book solely because we have a dog named Chip who would probably eat bees if afforded the opportunity. This book exceeded my expectations and made our family laugh out loud with its humor. The writing and illustrations are equally beautiful and funny. If you’re looking for a great children’s book to gift to a dog-loving family, look no further.
