I have always loved this comic and this was another cute collection. Funny and adorable, what's not to like?

I got this from netgalley from read-now section. It was okay, I have never read Mutts comics before but clearly it's not for me - though I love pets. I have both cat and dog back at home but I didn't like this as much as I wanted to.

The copy I have received, was bit blurred and it took ages to turn pages in my kindle. Now I know other comics work fast so it must be problem with this only. Nothing to do with comics but I found that it took longer to turn pages than reading the column. It was annoying...

The cornball humor is great. The pets are unique and wonderful. I really loved the shelter stories too.

Spring is here (at least in the Mutts universe)! The birds are back and even the turtles. Easter is just around the corner and there are lots of bunnies to ask about eggs. Of course, there are also spring showers to contend with. Earl and Mooch also meet a caterpillar and hang out waiting for him to turn into a butterfly. A series of animal sounds puns ensue and the various animals take their turns trying to write their own comics.
Regular Mutts readers will not be disappointed.

Mooch and Earl are cute companions, as ever. I am a bit more interested in the songbirds, though, and their various choices. Some cute jokes, some that my dad would love, and overall a nice familiar jaunt through spring with some familiar faces.

After a bit of a rough week, I needed this book. It was cute, funny, punny, and just extremely adorable and great for all ages and genders. Those who read my reviews know that I don't put in spoilers if I can help it but I do have to say the Robin Williams quote especially made me feel better. If you're looking for an easy reader to share with the kids that will interest them as they're learning to read or if you just have one that leans towards comics, definitely read this. Or, if you're like me, you just enjoy adorable kids books as an adult, it's a great one to read.

I would like to thank the publisher, author, and Netgalley for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review.

A lot of characters from McDonnell's Mutts Comics are featured in this book too. They are warm and funny. I wish there was a better structure to this book and McDonnell's works have been warmer. This was a bit tepid. Still a fun read.

A super cute collection of animal-themed comics. Some of these will really make you go 'aww.' I particularly enjoyed the Shtinky and the Guard dog ones.
