Description
Book SynopsisMove over! Pearls Before Swine is back and badder than ever in the new treasury collection Pearls Hogs the Road.The
Pearls gang returns with characteristically misanthropic humor (but with more leather): no self-aggrandizing is too flagrant for Rat, no subject is too erudite for Goat, and no sensory input is too basic for Pig.
All topics are fair game for Stephan Pastis and his brass-knuckle punch lines. Comic strip censors, apathetic baristas, and IRS employees are all strongly advised to laugh or get out of the way.
Pearls Hogs the Road also features three comic strips illustrated by the legendary Bill Watterson of
Calvin and Hobbes, who ended a 19-year hiatus from the comics page to collaborate with Pastis.
Trade Review"If you like puns, self-deprecating humor, and comics that break the fourth wall,
Pearls Before Swine should be on your shelf. Or-- in our
case-- always on the dining table, open to whatever page my daughters happen to be on." (GeekDad)
