Customer Reviews

Funniest Book Ever Written

Just like the title for my review- this is the funniest book ever written. Our whole family has really enjoyed Garfield and his sense of humor.This is a book that the whole family will love from child to adult. This book is for everyone. It will leave you laughing till you cry. Enjoy.

Great for leisure reading

I bought this book for my girlfriend since she's a Garfield Fanatic and she loved it. I read it also and it was very funny. Eventhough you expect it to be a kids book, adults can have a good time reading it.

Good Find

I bought this book as a gift for a friend. She loves Garfield and immediately fell in love with this book. Funny stuff, great find.

Garfield is witty!

In "Garfield's Guide to Everything", there are some silly stuff like Jon said, "Did you know that kissing a chicken cures cold sores". When Garfield says that Jon is a nerd, he said that nerds are usually in mom's basement. Or at the comic book store. Or wearing plastic Vulcan ears at the local Star Trek convention. Kids will love this!

Pure Garfield Advice --- Fans Are Gonna Love This!

In "Garfield's Guide to Everything," Garfield dishes out advice on many topics near and dear to his heart and rants on some not so dear. In here, you'll find advice on everything from laziness to pscychics. There's actually a lot of good information in here and it's all done with the Garfield wit and humor you've come to love. Watch also for funny, up-to-date pop-culture references. Included with the advice are everything from Garfield cartoons to Garfield promotional posters. While they may seem like shameless advertising (and hey --- why would Garfield be above that?), they actually help quite nicely to reinforce the points that Garfield is making. Watch out though, you might find yourself wanting one or more of these posters if you don't have them already! At the end of the book, Garfield gives a hodepodge of short, additional bits of advice on subjects that didn't merit full-page entries, such as armageddon and procrastination. Make sure to soak up this information, followed by a big dinner and then a nice, long snooze. All day perhaps?
