Birds of a Feather Read FoxTrot Together

I have been a faithful FoxTrot reader for years. Roger, Andy and their kids Peter, Paige and Jason are always good for a reality check with a large dose of laughter. I've got two girls and let me tell you, I see a lot of my kids in Paige with, I believe, even a healthy dose of Jason thrown in. And they have Peter's bottomless stomach. Of course, they're faithful FoxTrot readers too. I used to read the strip to them, explain what was going on, but now they get it just fine and we three all laugh together. Then my girls try and explain the strip to their dad, who pretends he doesn't get it. The FoxTrot folks are a great family, one we sort of got used to checking up on every day, so we took the news that Mr. Amend was going to cease daily distribution of his wonderfully funny people and turn his strip to Sunday only, with a bit of sadness. Still, we have these terrific FoxTrot books to keep us going with our FoxTrot fix. Mr. Amend is to be commended for his great gift to our culture and his great gift to so many lives. I truly believe a laugh a day, helps keep the blues away and the FoxTrot gang are always good for a laugh. Heck there are a lot of laughs in the FoxTrot books. I know, I have them all and I am, along with my girls and my hubby dear, eagerly awaiting the next one. Oh yes, I forgot to mention, we don't have an iguana, but my girls do have a pet gecko and, you guessed it, his name is Quincy.

Stick 'Em Up!

This is one of the best Foxtrot books I've ever read! Quincy is my favorite character. Anyway this book mainly revolves around Jason and "The Lone Igunana" in the first few pages of the book, but I won't give anyanymore details. Hope you enjoy reading it, I sure did!

"The Lone Iguana says don't touch that dial..."

Feeling a little down? Having a hard time laughing? Well, FoxTrot will cure you of that in no time! After all of these years, this comic strip is still able to make me laugh, make me smile and make me forget about my problems, even if it's just for a little bit. "The Return of the Lone Iguana" is a hilarious collection of FoxTrot strips that will have you laughing over and over again. With 128 pages filled with FoxTrot hilarity, this is a collection that will not disappoint.Everything is fair game in the Fox Family. Jason continues to drive his sister insane with his various toy weapons and pet iguana. Peter is still doing essays at the last minute (literally!) and is driving his parents nuts with his loud music. And of course, Andy has to put up with her husband's stupidity and insanity. Yes, it is an ordinary day for the Fox Family.In addition to the triumphant return (return?) of the Lone Iguana, you'll also get:*Paige's mall trip with Peter**Jason's new internet**Peter's sick day from school**Jason's "The Far Side II"**Halloween with the Fox Family**Paige in a play**Thanksgiving: the meal of horrors*and a whole lot more!"The Return of the Lone Iguana" is a hilarious FoxTrot collection that does not disappoint for a single second. If you're a fan of the comic strip, then I highly recommend checking it out. If you have never read FoxTrot before... the more reason to check it out!

What do you think?

This book is AWESOME! Not unlike the other Foxtrot books this one has endured several readings on my part and lots of giggles.All of Amend's work is creative and hilarious. Overall: highly recommended

The igauna will blow you away!

The fox family endures yet another ride of "the lone igauna", Jason's new interest in the internet and becoming a "X-Files" agent, Paige's role as "Cleopatra" in the school play and the rest of the fox clan's humorous exploits! It holds up to Bill Amend's unbroken line of classic cartoons!
