Fans have fallen in love with Liz Climo's charmingly quirky animal kingdom, which was first featured in The Little World of Liz Climo-a place where porcupines, anteaters, and grizzly bears all grapple with everyday life with wit and humor.
Friends: They are there when we just want to hang out, or need someone to listen. They make us laugh, and lend a shoulder to cry on. Comic artist Liz Climo captures the true spirit of friendship with this quirkily charming collection. Her animal kingdom is a place where sharks, otters, porcupines, and even crustaceans come together to show the best of what friends have to offer.
This little book will remind you to appreciate your own friendships...and inspire you to share with a special pal.

UnBEARably cute!
ByMichelon December 3, 2015|Verified Purchase
Climo's comics combine the sheer cuteness of her drawing with wonderful jokes and puns. Many of them involve lateral thinking and curious consequences of animals behaving like people. Most are light hearted, but she does not avoid joking about shrimps about to be eaten by huge whales, a vulture pecking at a pig (who turns out to be sleeping) or suicidal lemmings. And many are about nothing else than pure cute, especially in this volume, which is dedicated to friendship and just how nice friends can (should?) be.
She does publish many of her comics on her Tumblr, which could make buying her books somewhat unnecessary. But I really think her books are worth having, and serve as wonderful gifts - give the power of cute!

Reading this will make you happy!
ByAMBon May 15, 2016|Verified Purchase
Quirkily funny and dangerously cute: the only problem is that this book might be even more enjoyable for adults than for kids... So don't hesitate to read this even if you do not have the excuse of having children in your household. Or give it to your adult friends, as I defy anyone not to enjoy and smile at these little gags and puns.
Note: I purchased the Kindle version which looks great on my Fire HDX, but it's also easily readable on my smartphone (using the Kindle reading app).

Cute and funny
ByMatt Murrayon December 30, 2015|Verified Purchase
Liz Climo's artwork is adorable. She has a fantastic sense of humor and if you can page through this book without cracking a smile, I think you might want to see a doctor because something must be wrong with you.
Each page contains a comic, some with recurring characters, some not. They're all capable of being enjoyed individually, but I can't imagine someone stopping after just one page. The jokes are also very family friendly, meaning you can keep this out on your shelf for everyone to enjoy. And enjoy they will.

A sweet little book of silly animal comics, that will actually make you laugh. This is a great gift for a friend who is feeling down or as a "I'm thinking of you" or just because Liz Climo is awesome.

ByRonion January 23, 2017|Verified Purchase
This has got to be the BEST gift for anyone to give to their best friends. Every page is so cute and clever, you can't help but smile. Even if you've seen the comics before, when you pick up the book again, it'll still tickle your heart. I highly recommend this for anyone to give as a best friend gift.
