<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The classic debut "Garfield" comic strip collection is back, now in full color and a large format. Includes a new Introduction and annotations by the tubby tabby himself.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Like every great lasagna, Garfield was born in the kitchen of an Italian restaurant on a winter's night in 1978, while outside snow fell like grated Parmesan cheese. He weighed five pounds, six ounces at birth--that's big for a kitten!--and right from the start showed a passion for Italian food. The restaurant owner, forced to choose between Garfield and closing his doors for lack of pasta, sold Garfield to a pet store. Garfield thought he was a goner until Jon Arbuckle walked in the door. <p/> The rest is history.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Jim Davis</b> was born on July 28, 1945, in Marion, Indiana. He later attended Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, where he distinguished himself by earning one of the lowest cumulative grade point averages in the history of the university.
