5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and intelligent!, June 13, 1999

By A Customer

Mixing great artwork with excellent imagination and humor, Gary Larson's Far Side galleries, including this one, is a stroke of genius. Great writing, too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gary Larson is the Best, period, August 13, 2001

By	"mntwinsfan8791" (Eden Prairie, Mn USA) - See all my reviews

There isnt much to say in a review of this book, except that if you buy this book i GUARANTEE you'll buy the other 4!!! There absolutely excelent. The funniest cartoon of all of them is the one with a chimpanzee picking stuff off her husbands back and saying "Another blonde hair, eh? Doing a little extra research with that Jane Goodall tramp?"....and thats just the tip of the iceberg! Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars I AM A LARSEN JUNKIE!!! I NEED MORE!!!, July 17, 2002

By	George Stancliffe (Toppenish, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Larsen is the world's greatest cartoonist. Too bad he retired. I have envelopes filled with his cartoons clipped out of the newspaper (10+ years ago!) that I still can't bear to throw away. So I suppose this book was a good idea. It will take up less space than several bulging envelopes.

For younger people who can't remember his cartoons in the paper every day, you need to hurry up and start collecting his books so you can always be within arm's length of a smile or a laugh.

Also, I love the story about the "Jane Goodall Cartoon"
