Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Patrick McDonnell is a major animal welfare advocate. He's also a prominent proponent of funny and a keen observer of the small, everyday moments that make up our lives. Stop and Smell the Roses: A Mutts Treasury is a collection of dailies and Sundays of the adventures of McDonnell's dynamic dog and cat duo.

* "Patrick McDonnell's Mutts is up there with Peanuts, Pogo, Krazy Kat, and Calvin and Hobbes--cartoons that are smart and funny, brilliantly drawn and full of heart." --Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons

* McDonnell was awarded Germany's Max and Moritz Award for best international comic strip and the Adamson Statuette from the Swedish Academy of Comic Art for Best International Comic Strip Artist. Mutts was also honored with the Genesis Award for highlighting animal welfare issues.

* Mutts characters are featured on special New Jersey license plates to raise funds for low-cost spaying and neutering.

McDonnell coauthored Krazy Kat: The Art of George Herriman, which is considered the definitive work on the classic strip, and is a contributor to Masters of American Comics, edited by John Carlin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exquisite esthetics, June 1, 2009
By Harold Edward Wills (Hagerstown, Maryland USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Stop and Smell the Roses: A Mutts Treasury (Paperback)
This is another spectacular continuation of the greatly blessed and gifted and wonderful Patrick McDonald.
Mutts is and has been from its very genesis one of the finest "comic" strips of our civilization.
This artist does not invent the idea of projecting human characteristics and personalities onto our beloved God-given little friends, he simply gives them life with his art.

5.0 out of 5 stars Never fails to please animal lovers, May 2, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Stop and Smell the Roses: A Mutts Treasury (Paperback)
Some of the best recent strips form the past year, and as always, the diverse artwork of the Sunday strips in full color. Not everyone sees the humor in animal comic strips, and not everyone appreciates the soul of gentleness McDonnell displays, but then again, not everyone depends on blatant slapstick one-liners for a good laugh. McDonnell always shows up the good in the characters around us and gives us hope and a sense of community with life.
