Starting in August and continuing throughout the fall, Dav Pilkey’s "Do Good Tour" will bring together kids, families, and educators, to highlight the many ways books inspire—and how each individual can help others make a positive difference wherever they are. Hosted by bookstores and key community partners, all of the events will have a "do good" component to support non-profit literacy organizations, local charities, military families, schools as well as libraries in underserved areas. The "Do Good Tour" will officially kick-off at the Mississippi Book Festival in Jackson, Mississippi on August 17^th.

While in Mississippi, Dav Pilkey will make an appearance before thousands of school children from Title 1 schools. The tour will continue in St. Louis, Missouri at the Chaifetz Arena on August 18^th. Additional U.S. tour markets will be announced via Scholastic’s social media platforms throughout the summer. In addition to getting the opportunity to meet Dav Pilkey and hearing his inspiring story as a kid who struggled with ADHD and dyslexia, attendees at each family-friendly event will be treated to fun activities including photo opportunities with Dog Man and Captain Underpants costumed characters, signed books, giveaways, and more. Following the U.S. tour, Dav Pilkey will appear at the China Shanghai International Children’s Book Fair (CCBF), with additional stops in Hong Kong and Mumbai in November, and visits to Australia and Canada in 2020.
