Collecting strips from his last two books, Nighthogs and The Ratvolution Will Not Be Televised, cartoonist Stephan Pastis takes you on a magically malicious journey over the rainbow and into the rat trap of <I>Lions and Tigers and Crocs, Oh My!</i> As in the previous Pearls treasury collection, Sgt. Piggy's Lonely Hearts Club Comic, the comic strips are annotated, as only the smart-alecky, misanthropic-but-lovable Pastis can do. Following his yellow brick road of notes, readers gain great insights into the making of such classic <I>Pearls</i> bits as Rat's stint as a <I>New York Times</i> reporter, Angry Bob, Pig's plastic surgery, the Mallet o' Understanding, Mrs. Bootyworth, and the fraternal order of the Zeeba Zeeba Eetas.<P>A special bonus feature included in <I>Lions and Tigers and Crocs</i> is "The Good, the Banned, and the Ugly," a section of never-before-published and unedited Pearls strips.<P>So go, as fast as lightning, to the Emerald City¿or the cash register¿and buy this book, before a twister drops a Box o' Stupid People on you!<P> 50818 1 9 2006 Lions and Tigers and Crocs, Oh My!: Pearls Before Swine Treasury total:116|5:77|4:33|3:6|2:0|1:0| 116 535 142 11 5 0 false false Fri Jun 05 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 02 11:08:39 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 05:37:35 -0700 2009 READ IT!]]> 5 0 false false Wed May 13 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 12:11:58 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 12:12:53 -0700 2009 this is the best comic since The Far Side and Calvin & Hobbes. ]]> 4 0 false false Fri Jul 24 04:07:08 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 24 04:07:29 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Nov 26 09:13:45 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 26 09:14:10 -0800 2008 1 5 0 false false Sun Oct 08 00:00:00 -0700 2006 Tue Aug 19 08:52:51 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 19 08:57:08 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Aug 11 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 18 11:04:20 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 18 11:08:23 -0700 2008 more...]]> 5 0 false false Wed Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Jan 19 21:38:08 -0800 2008 Sat Jan 19 21:40:29 -0800 2008
This book is for people with the same sardonic, devilish humor as those who enjoy Addams Family (Chas Addams), The Far Side or Sherman's Lagoon.
