<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Portraying the family-oriented adventures of one wild suburban household, Bill Amend, creator of the beloved cartoon "FoxTrot", addresses situations kids encounter--both serious and fanciful--with a deftly on-target, humorous touch. "Come Closer, Roger, There's a Mosquito on Your Nose" promises to be another engaging collection of this immensely popular family strip.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> What makes <i>FoxTrot</i> such a refreshing jolt of humor? Maybe because it seems to be written by an ingenious kid who's looking for a few good ways to get into trouble. Maybe someone just like Jason Fox himself!</p><p> In fact, cartoonist Bill Amend has perfectly captured the adolescent sensibility in his cartoon strip <i>FoxTrot</i>. Portraying the family-oriented adventures of one wild suburban household, Amend addresses situations kids encounter-both serious and fanciful-with a deftly on-target, humorous touch.</p><p> In <i>Come Closer, Roger, There's a Mosquito on Your Nose</i>, the Fox family is in full comical force. The family's lead instigator, 10-year-old Jason, continues to contrive skirmishes involving his 14-year-old sister, Paige, but he also spends ample time with his computer and his pet iguana, Quincy.</p><p> Paige, the unwitting target of Jason's jokes, survives in style, heading off to the mall or plotting a major flirtation in cahoots with her friend, Nicole. Elder son, Peter, 16, has his own interests: cramming for a test, wooing his girlfriend, Denise, and helping his dad with a chore or two. Through it all, parents Roger and Andy strive to hold down the fort while dealing with their own challenges, from work to weight loss to the computer.</p> <br>
