There’s a new dog in town! Finally Greenwood gets the mayor they’ve been waiting for–Mayor Good Boy! In this graphic novel, a very good dog is going to save his town, one hilarious try at a time.

The votes are in and the new mayor is…A DOG?!
 
This dog will do more than shake paws. Mayor Good Boy is here to help Greenwood become a town filled with kindness, starting with fetching help for the local zoo. With foes around every corner trying to put a stop to Mayor Good Boy’s campaign of fun, are there cheese snacks and belly rubs in his future? Or will the whole town suddenly have a flea problem?

“In this graphic novel, the underdogs turn out to be the real heroes…. Presents a timely topic through likable characters.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Kid-friendly… uses a comedic style employed with success by Dav Pilkey and Nickelodeon cartoons… gamely mixes cute and mildly disgusting while representing Greenwood’s intersectional diversity” –Publishers Weekly
