How does one write a review for a Gary Larson book? With an example: if you've ever laughed so hard at a cartoon that you burst your second stomach, be prepared to do it again. Gary Larson's cartoons are strange humor, brilliant, and sometimes gives people dangerous belly-laughs. This book is themed around animals, (including people, (including cave people)) and space aliens. There is a short series of great color paintings in the center, depicting the various ages of life on Earth, including the hilarious "Age of Invertebrates", to the future world where Gary predicts cows will be the dominant species. If you're not familiar with Gary, you should check out the preview and see for yourself. He is the Master, but we're not sure of what. This book is hilarious.

Why should you pick up Unnatural Selections when you have all the Galleries. Because in the center of this book you'll find, full-page in full color on glossy pages. It's the evolution of life as only Gary Larson can tell it.

Yet more of Gary Larson's off the wall humour for fans to enjoy. Larson's cartoons are certainly not mainstream but for anyone who loves humour that is a little bit different this book is a delight. Quirky artwork abounds, as do the bizarre scenarios of Larson's world. One of the few cartoonists that can make me laugh out loud.... brilliant!

I love Gary Larson because there are no Sacred Cows that he won't barbecue. Which is a perfect sequeway into one cartoon in this book. A rebellious teenage cow comes home wearing leather, thankfully his wise mother tells others that to ignore him it's just a phase!
I have had friends desert me in card shops when I read Gary Larson's cards. If you are a fan, this is a must have!

This book is good comic relief!!! I enjoy Far Side books, have almost every one that this author has written!

It's a very good one from Gary Larson, with a few detailed color drawings inside and plenty of funny cartoons. The format of the book is bigger and makes it enjoyable and ideal for reading at home. Can also be a nice "introductory" gift to friends who dont yet about know the author.

If your a fan of The Far Side you will love it. The seller shipped it fast and it was in great condition! It was a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it!

The book was in great shape as advertised. The price was very reasonable, and delvery was quick and seure.

This is is the first far side book I've brought and it wont be the last. The funniest cartoon in the book is "Look out it's a red hot poker' joke. This is one funny book.

This was supposed to be a Spanish edition Far Side Cartoon, instead it's just a plain old (I mean old!) English edition. Contacted the seller and they are like "Send more information" yeah right this is not worth my time.
