In the tradition of joke guidebooks to fictional places, this one rates right up there! Chock full of entertaining info for the fan in all of us.

I especially enjoyed the descriptions of the many shops in Springfield and the 'What's Right With Springfield' boxes.

A fun read!

So much fun! I loved this when I was a kid, still grateful for my nana buying it for me. She’s the reason I love the Simpsons and comics and the Simpsons comics so much, I wouldn’t have a quarter as many if it weren’t for her.

a book i think i last read when i was 13, incredibly nostalgic. i re-read it through the internet archive for anyone looking to do the same. the jokes are a lot funnier as an adult!

If you are a Simpsons fan you will enjoy this. It's not great. It just reminds you of classic moments from when the Simpsons were funny. Keep it in the car, while your spouse runs in the Kwik-E-Mart to get coffee. Or keep it in the bathroom for... focus.
