This is one of those books I've had forever. Actually, it was my sister's, a prize she won for spelling in first or second grade (I know this because inside cover has a note from her teacher saying exactly that). As with most of my sister's books, this one soon found its way to me, and here we are.
It's been sitting in a pile of books I used to have down at my parents' place at the beach until I decided to consolidate.
Inside are a small collection of short comics about the Muppets, who are, as always, great fun.

This was odd. I didn't even know there were Muppet comic strips. They weren't very clever. It certainly wasn't Muppet humor.
