“I’m going to say this right now — Demo: The Story of a Junkyard Dog is a new classic! Between the excellent story and the fabulous artwork, this graphic novel should take its place among the books that every children’s library should have on its shelves.” more
“A cross between Dr. Seuss and hipster Japanese anime, Demo: The Story of a Junkyard Dog is an instant classic for dog lovers of all ages...Let Demo show you why adopting a homeless dog is the purest form of recycling. This story stole my heart.” more
“Demo's tale will definitely intrigue dog-loving kids of most ages, and for older kids, there's a lot to discuss, from bias, to dog adoption, to consumerism. But the biggest bonus comes before you even start reading: The real Demo actually paw-tographs every copy!” more
““Well written by Jon Bozak and beautifully illustrated by Scott Bruns. Like all of the best children's books, Demo not only tells a fun story but also teaches a valuable life lesson.” more
“The old adage, “you can’t judge a book by its cover” (although it’s not true for the work inside this book) is often spoken but not practiced. Demo: The Story of a Junkyard Dog just might change that for a few people.” more
“What a time for a book like this to come around! Demo motivates young readers to reconsider all the things they think are disposable–especially abandoned pets.” more
“Smartly written and breathtakingly illustrated, “Demo” is a true underdog story – a delightful story, the kind of book you (and your child, or your students) will want to read over and over again”
“What an orginal idea! This one will be read, re-read and read from. I loved it!” more
“Children's books often carry an important message for the developing child - this important book's message speaks to adults as well. Fantastic art work coupled with a sharp, engaging message, this book will rivet children and give adults cause to ponder their attitude toward prejudice.
