Were I to describe this book with one word, it would be "quirky."

I recieved a copy of this book via the First Reads program here on goodreads and I can tell you, you could do a whole heck of a lot worse.

This volume has the entire series in it. The stories are fun, inspiring, and a joy to read. The art does an excellent job of conveying the emotional content with out word balloons or efitoeial expisition getting in the way.

Seriously, read this.
