Everyday Mutts, 15: A Comic Strip Treasury

By Patrick McDonnell

With Schulz gone and Watterson retired, Patrick McDonnell is the heir apparent to the comic strip crown. Long may he reign."
Everyday MUTTS marks the 11th book of the award-winning MUTTS strip. It is the follow-up to Patrick McDonnell's successful collection Who Let the Cat Out? as well as his first storybook, The Gift of Nothing, which reached the New York Times Best-Seller List for Children's Picture Books in January 2006.

McDonnell's classic cartooning style not only delivers consistent laughs but often a message that reminds us to take care of our furry friends. With its expressive art and clever, often philosophical pet banter, MUTTS has built a large and loyal fan base among readers and cartoonists alike. McDonnell is a past winner of the National Cartoonists Society's Reuben Award, and MUTTS won the coveted Comic Strip of the Year Award in 1996.

This unique collection includes 16 pages of full-color bonus material, including watercolors, other artwork, and items personally selected from the creator's sketchbook to accompany the black-and-white dailies and McDonnell's Sunday pages with his signature title panels. As always, the tales-and tails-of this especially close dog-kitty friendship can be counted on for charming adventures and gentle laughs, reminding us that there is more than it seems to the Everyday MUTTS we meet on the street.

Sweet humor

The "Mutts" books are delightful. So easy to just pick up the book, open it to any page & chuckle. All the characters are fun & have distinct personalities.

Simply wonderful!!!!! A must read for any animal lover!

Another wonderful volume that continues the series adventures of Mooch and Earl, plus the rest of the cast of characters from the world of Mutts. A must-read for animal lovers, conservationists, and Mutts fans. If you haven't read Mutts before you will simply love this book for its simplicity, humor, and themes.

Gotta Have Em All

What's not to love about MUTTS? The characters are all amazingly big hearted, including Sour Puss, and it's just a feel good Comic. If you haven't read any of the MUTTS stuff, start now! Buy Mutts, the first collection, and go from there! If you are an animal lover and an "environmentalist" this is the series for you! Patrick McDonnnell presents his ideas on conservation, preservation, and doing our part for the world and for all the living creatures in it in a humorous and heartfelt way.
