Product Description

Rose is Rose has long garnered attention from fans across the country and around the world. When the National Cartoonists Society named Rose creator Pat Brady Outstanding Cartoonist of 2004 it only confirmed what those readers already knew in their hearts: Brady rolls out one of the best strips in the business.

Red Carpet Rose is Brady's first book since he received the NCS honors. As the seven previous Rose is Rose books have done before, this one continues the tales of the hilarious Gumbo family: Rose, her husband, Jimbo, and their devilish, delightful, and demanding son, Pasquale. Brady deftly captures the innocent and ageless qualities of wonder and awe at the world's boundless experiences, as seen through the lives of his beloved characters.

Whether the Gumbos are sharing a simple family moment in the park, Pasquale is pushing his little-boy limits, or Rose is morphing into her Biker Chic alter ego, this Rose is Rose compilation of daily and Sunday strips delivers all the fun, laughter, and family-loving moments that mark Brady's work. This is cartooning at its best!



About the Author

Pat Brady launched himself into the world of cartooning at the ripe old age of six. By 11 the confident young artist began submitting his strips to newspapers. Pat went on to study art and creative writing at the University of Wisconsin then made his leap into full-time Rose is Rose work in 1984. After two decades of creating every Rose is Rose comic strip himself, Pat now shares the writing and drawing duties with Don Wimmer. This is the first Rose is Rose collection that features the Brady-Wimmer collaboration.

4.0 out of 5 stars Laundry the Rose Way, May 18, 2006
By Joshua Koppel (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Rose, Jimbo and Pasquale Gumbo are back (and let's not forget Clem and Vicki) in another collection of daily strips. Rose and family continue their way through daily life as only they can. Only here can making tea become a romantic moment or guardian angels carry school books.

While Rose is part of the most loving family in comics, the romance is turned down a little in this collection (unlike in RIGHT ON THE LIPS). The love is there but with less kissing. Pasquale seems to have become a little better adjusted and doesn't get his feelings squashed by Clem so much. All in all a very good collection.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite the same with Wimmer handling the art chores, October 15, 2006
By Jeffrey H., Wasserman (Central Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I will readily concede that it's certainly a difficult chore producing a daily comics strip and that joint efforts and ghost writers and artists are the norm in this artform.

That being said, Rose is Rose is not quite what it used to be now that Mr. Wimmer has become involved.
