A spin-off chapter book series in the world of the Flytrap Files, from New York Times bestselling author Tom Angleberger!

After working as a nanny for the power-hungry ShrubBaby (a deceivingly adorable baby shrub), DJ Funkyfoot—a chihuahua who dreams of being a butler—has finally landed his dream job. A real actual butler gig! He’s been hired to butle for President Horse on the day that the president needs to sign a peace treaty with the Queen of Wingland. But the president doesn’t feel like it. All he wants to do is kick back, relax, and play some mini-golf.

It’s up to DJ Funkyfoot to get the president through his mini-golf game quickly so he can get the treaty signed on time to stop the war and save the day!

DJ Funkyfoot: Give Cheese a Chance takes place in the same world as Inspector Flytrap and Didi Dodo but does not require knowledge of these worlds.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

DJ Funkyfoot: Give Cheese a Chance is praised for its witty and repetitive prose that helps aid comprehension. The recurring theme of "hot cheese volcano" adds a delicious twist to mini golf and contributes to the book's goofy, entertaining chapter-book appeal featuring a Chihuahua butler.
