Book Reviews of Home Sweat Home: A For Better or For Worse Collection
Book Review: Another great compilation of hers.
Summary: 5 Stars
Done it again. I absolutely love For Better or For Worse. The only thing better than reading the series in the paper daily is getting these themed collections of the strips to read over and over again. You can't go wrong here.
Summary of Home Sweat Home: A For Better or For Worse Collection
"Lynn Johnston is cartooning's reigning master at combining gags with continuity. Her ongoing story of the Patterson family has been one of the most beloved strips for years." --Atlanta ConstitutionLynn Johnston's For Better or For Worse is the world's most popular family strip in which characters have evolved through age and experience, rather than remaining frozen in time.
In Home Sweat Home, moves are afoot aplenty. John and Elly downsize to a new home and Mike and Deanna buy the family homestead to raise their children as a new generation fills the Patterson legacy. Romantic moves abound, too, as Elizabeth has her heart broken only to have it won back by Anthony. April turns sixteen and will soon by driving--which is driving her parents crazy.
- In September 2007, Johnston made an unprecedented move for a cartoonist; she introduced a new format by using current plot lines as a jumping-off point to revisit past storylines that complement the new ones.
