A hilarious, action-packed tale from #1 New York Times bestselling author starring a lovable, miniature cast of toys who must undertake their biggest mission yet: saving the family dog. 
Meet the Dog Toys—a ragtag group of unlikely heroes who have one thing in common: Moose. 

Goofy Moose. Clumsy Moose. Loveable Moose. Chews-on-his-toys-until-the-stuffing-comes-loose Moose. As much as they love their dog, every day with him is a fight for survival. That’s why the toy team, led by the fearless Captain Bananas, must be clever and quick to outwit (and outrun!) their dog. But when a dangerous mission goes wrong and Moose escapes, the toys must work together to save their biggest tormentor—and best friend.

This laugh-out-loud story from New York Times bestselling author Kelly DiPucchio and comically genius illustrator Jennifer Harney will delight readers of all ages.
