Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

The graying of the "toons" continues. Last year Bugs Bunny celebrated his 50th birthday, and now Sylvester the Cat and Tweety, his tiny but formidable bird adversary, have also reached the half-century milestone. Taking its title from Tweety's most famous line, this book is a richly illustrated biography of the pair that traces the creation and evolution of Sylvester, Tweety, and their cohorts, including Granny, Sylvester Jr., Speedy Gonzales, Spike, and Hippety Hopper, the kangaroo baby that Sylvester often mistakes for a giant mouse. As with all books of this genre, the illustrations tell the story. Included is a complete filmography of all Sylvester and Tweety cartoons released between 1942 and 1965. Generally recommended for public library and subject collections.

This review is from: "I Tawt I Taw a Puddy Tat": Fifty Years of Sylvester and Tweety (Paperback)

This is a great book. It tells you all the cartoons They were in. Even before they came together. It has who directed and talked for them. Pictures from back when they were black and white. Cartoons from World war 2 and even show back when Tweety was a quail and not a canary. A must have for all Tweety fans,
