Editorial Reviews

Review
... the funniest book ever written with wonderful illustrations ... created by Roumieu, who is clearly some kind of genius. -- Susannah Breslin, The Reverse Cowgirl, June 2003

Product Description
Roumieu, whose illustrations have appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Progressive, reveals the hairy hominids's brave struggles with eating disorders, casual cannibalism, and philosophical quandaries ("Me once believe in good. Now, no. World go shit, like Bigfoot screenwriting career.") In a full-color graphic novel, Roumieu offers a portrait of the artist as a young ape that will leave the reader howling with laughter.

5.0 out of 5 stars I almost peed my pants, August 29, 2003
By S. "S" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This is one of the funniest books I've ever read. The illustrations are amazing! They appear to be simple watercolors but are really essential to the story line (if you want to call it that). Bigfoot talks quite openly about his life, his emotions and ambitions. Bigfoot has feelings too. He covers issues ranging from having a tough childhood, not being able to have a date for the prom, weight and body hair issues, and his relationship with Koko the gorilla. You come to realize that Bigfoot is a brilliant misunderstood genius who wishes that his stalkers would leave him alone, but at the same time craves fame and fortune.

5.0 out of 5 stars Me think this book make life worth living, March 28, 2006
You really, really want know bigfoot better? He misunderstood, that true. But Graham save Bigfoot from peril of obscurity. Make Bigfoot seem like best friend--same as Sylvia Plath poetry make me want know her. You read this book and be better, OK? Make you forget Iraqi civil war and avian flu.

5.0 out of 5 stars In Me Own Words, June 24, 2003
By A Customer
Book best I read in long time. So funny I mark territory outside my house to attract this bigfoot. Join in shocking adventures of curiosity, cannibalism, and tender homeboy stories. This book good. Loc Ness book bad. Opening page sells the book, but I won't tell about it. Buy it or I eat you wallet and then you face.

If you can handle how the this review was written you'll piss your pants laughing. The book is ingenious and is well worth the time it takes to order. Happy reading.

I read Bigfoot I Not Dead before I read this one.
