When he sits around the house; He sits AROUND the houseBy Ross NoirI read this book a few hundred times being one of the only entertaining books in my grandmothers old study and my intro to Garfield. I was surprised how much I remembered after not reading for 15 years or so.Love it; while some of the frames are awfully timely some really do have a timeless quality.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. number one fat catBy RustyGreat cartoons about a heavy weight cat if you have followed this strip as much as I have you will love looking back on Americas number one fat cat.
