It seemed to be a bit of a stretch of serious books, so it was time to interject it with something less strenuous. Let’s go to the comic book section. Friday’s read is The Best of Foxtrot
If you’re unfamiliar with FoxTrot – the comics cover a regular, stereotypical family and their day-to-day life.
The mother is a stay-at-home mom, freelancing journalist and a health nut when it comes to cooking and the father works at an office, and enjoys golfing. They have three children, Peter, their oldest son, enjoys eating, watching television and is terrible at sports, Paige, their daughter, who is rather ditzy, loves shopping and boy crazy, but without any huge success, and Jason, the youngest son, who is an extreme nerd. He enjoys pursuits such as standing in line for the latest release at the movie theatre, dressing up into the characters from such films, coding his own operative system to compete with Windows, and teasing Paige.
In vibe, it is rather like Calvin & Hobbes – if Calvin had an older sister to torment in addition to Susie.
