Summary: 5 Stars
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.
Summary of Assorted Foxtrot
With 20 successful collections and more than 1.75 million FoxTrot books already in circulation, creator Bill Amend shows no sign of slowing down. Amend proves again and again he's a master at playing up the Fox family's eccentricities in that quirky, casual-yet-believable way his fans have come to adore. FoxTrot has built its considerable appeal with its sincere depiction of the hilarious clashes seen in everyday family life without getting too sticky sweet. Fans of all ages can find something in Amend's work with which they're familiar, from the outrageous sibling rivalries between ten-year-old Jason and his teenage siblings, Peter and Paige, to marital squabbles over golf between parents Roger and Andy. Those fans-covering a broad audience including readers of over 1,000 newspapers and Internet surfers who hit the FoxTrot Web site more than one million times each month-will delight in owning this treasury. Sincerely FoxTrot is composed of material previously published in I'm Flying, Jack . . . I Mean, Roger and Think iFruity. FoxTrot's appeal, in large part, comes from Amend's talent for finding humor in contemporary topics and issues. Readers enjoy a delightful ride as the Fox family members give their takes on the latest in pop culture, whether it's movies such as Titanic and The Phantom Menace, Tomb Raider video games, X-files television, or the Beanie Baby collecting craze. It's sometimes surprising and always entertaining to see just how different members of the same gene pool can be.The humorous conglomeration of viewpoints, ages, outlooks, and characters that is FoxTrot never fails to reel in and amuse those who regularly read this remarkable comic strip. Amend's appeal has transcended traditional newspapers and has flowed onto the Internet through www.foxtrot.com. But no matter what the medium, FoxTrot's popularity grows stronger every day.General Books
