by Rick Kirkman (Illustrator), Jerry Scott (Writer)

Rick Kirkman e Jerry Scott lançaram a série Baby Blues na década de 90.

Baby Blues narra nas suas tiras o dia-a-dia de uma família composta por Wanda e Darren, bem como os seus 3 filhos, Zoe, a mais velha e sempre opinosa, Hammie, o filho do meio é potencial tornado a todo o momento, e Wren, a mais nova membro, agora a começar a manisfestar a sua personalidade, apresentando as tropelias, incidentes e situações caricatas pelos quais a família passa e espelhando o que muitas pessoas considerariam episódios normais das suas vidas.

Reviews

(review in English below)

Depois de me ter esquecido deste livro em casa da minha irmã (a 700 km de distância) há 4 meses, acabei por relê-lo quase todo depois de o recuperar (há 11 dias).

Não consigo deixar de me divertir imenso com as piadas que tão bem reflectem a vivência de uma família com filhos "pequenos". E os desenhos são brilhantes!

Tal como no volume anterior, não me agradaram em geral os comentários que os autores acrescentaram, em rodapé, nalgumas tiras, mas não será por isso que vou deixar de continuar a comprar e a ler esta série!

Having left this book at my sister's house (700 km away) 4 months ago, I ended up rereading almost all of it after getting it back (11 days ago).

I can't help it, I just have a lot of fun with these jokes that portray the life of a family with small children so accurately. And the drawings are brilliant!

Just like in the previous book, I didn't enjoy the remarks added by the authors for some strips. However, this reason is not enough to make me stop buying and reading this series!

Nada melhor do que uma boa dose de Baby Blues para nos pôr bem dispostos! ☺

[Veronic]

Loved this!

[David Allen Hines]

I've always enjoyed Baby Blues and now I am engaged in reading all of the collections and so glad I am! No Yelling has so many enjoyable strips I could not stop laughing and smiling. The characters are now all well developed and what I really like about these more recent volumes is the little tidbits and anecdotes that Kirkman and Scott have added between the strips. Anyone who loves Baby Blues will love this book! Printed in very high quality, my only real complaint is the large size of the book and it being a paperback makes it awkward to hold and read; it really works best only laying on a table top. But that is a small quibble for such an enjoyable read!

Another new Baby Blues collection that I hadn't had a prior change to read. I believe that this one was released for their 25th publishing anniversary. Another funny comic about the ups and down of parenthood.

[Rita]

Excelente leitura de praia. Gostei muito dos comentários feitos pelos autores que acompanham algumas das tiras, acrescentam uma nova dimensão à leitura.

Funny

I wouldn’t have picked this book up myself but through a book challenge I was challenged to read a graphic book. It was true and funny. Real life parenting feelings.

[Melissa Lee-Tammeus]

A true pleasure every time. A walk down memory lane accompanied by humor, fantastic drawings, and tons of "remember the times."

[Nicole]

It was good. Not as good as Adult Time. Like it nonetheless

This is a fun collection of Baby Blues!

There are authors notes and insights. There are typical Baby Blues jokes. It's a varied collection with some laughs.

[Atlanta]

Baby Blues, always a pleasure

[Sadie-Jane Huff]

I love the strips... but i love the comments added to certain strips to explain why or how they did certain things...

[Narariel]

Hammie meets Sammie (& finds her oddly familiar,) Wren learning to walk, & an Easter egg hunt goes wrong, at least for the kids.

[Ron]

Sometimes you just need the laughs!

[Charles Yoder]

I was not familiar with this strip. I loved it and will read more.

[Rachel]

I love a good comic book that makes me laugh out loud. Excellent illustrations.

I also enjoyed Rick and Jerry’s commentary under the strips.

4.5 stars rounded up!

[Megan Byrd]

I love these books. They capture parenting and relationships (sibling, marriage) so well.

[Mara Quinta]

Estas tirinhas têm o dom de fazer sentir normal desde o primeiro livro. Como pseudo "stay at home mum" de três consigo ver-me e rever-me em cada tira. Sou obcecada por esta família tão parecida com a minha :)

[Rex Libris]

A fun book. The authors add background commentary and personal notes about the strips, which makes things more interesting.

[Cláudia]

Os comentários dos autores nas tiras tornam-nas muitas vezes ainda mais engraçadas :)

[Virgen]

Loved it!

It was just to funny and I'm not a person to laugh much from Reading a book, well the worth getting it.

[Andy Baird]

Cover to cover I just laughed my ass off.

[Bunny]

I love this comic so much.
