 A spoof of the movie "Godzilla", with dog and mice characters. When Dogzilla invades Mousopolis, the rodent inhabitants must decide on a plan to rid themselves of this terrible menace before their city is chewed to pieces. One of Dav Pilkey's best known, and best-loved books. This wacky tale features colorful collages, manipulated photographs, and paintings. Warning: Some material may be too goofy for grown-ups! Full color. |
 | "The inspiration for Dogzilla came one day when I was at a friend's house watching one of my favorite movies, "Godzilla Vs. Megalon". My friend's son, Nate, was sitting on the floor building a castle out of Legos.
Everything was fine until Nate let his dog, Leia, into the house.
Leia came charging into the room and smashed right through the Lego castle. With the mass of little Lego blocks and action figures scattered around her, Leia looked like a silly monster who had just rampaged a city. 'I should write a book about that,' I said. So I did." — Dav Pilkey |

 1. Although Liea liked having her picture taken, she refused to hold her ears up for the photos. The only way I could get her to raise her ears was to say, "Do you want to go for a walk?" Her ears would then "spring" up and I would snap the picture. This only worked three or four times in a row before I would have to put my camera down and take her for a walk.
2. Leia was "paid" for her "acting services" with a new collar, a doggy bed, tons of Milkbones, and lots and lots of tummy scratching.
3. The mice in Kat Kong and Dogzilla were "paid" with their favorite food, corn-on-the-cob. They also got a cool house that I made out of cardboard, but they ripped it up after a few weeks.
4. Dogzilla is dedicated to my buddy, John "the Rapper" Wills. John was the original creator of this web site!
