Matthew Abram Groening is an American cartoonist, television producer and writer from Portland, Oregon.
Groening is best known as the creator of The Simpsons. He is also the creator of Futurama and the author of the weekly comic strip Life in Hell. Groening distributed Life in Hell in the book corner of Licorice Pizza, a record store in which he worked.
He made his first professional cartoon sale to the avant-garde Wet magazine in 1978. The cartoon is still carried in 250 weekly newspapers.
As a longtime fan of The Simpsons, I was excited to buy this when I was a kid. It offers a lighthearted collection of comic strips and fun activities featuring our favourite Springfield characters. It's perfect for a leisurely read, but there are some hits and misses.
Inside, you'll find various sections packed with classic comic strips that showcase the misadventures of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie during their sunny escapades. There are also interactive elements like puzzles and games that aim to engage younger readers. The illustrations are vibrant and capture the quirky charm of the show, making it visually appealing.
However, I felt that the content sometimes lacked the sharp wit and depth that fans expect from the series. While it’s fun for casual readers or parents looking for something entertaining for their kids, devoted fans might find it a bit on the lighter side, lacking the layered humor that’s made the show a staple in pop culture.
Overall, this is a delightful diversion, but it may not satisfy those craving the original show’s satirical edge. Great for casual fans or as a gift for kids.
Love this quote about the book "Whether your playground is made of asphalt, grass, or just the stuff of your imagination, there is enough fun jam-packed into these pages to satisfy even the grumpiest little sluggard."
Also this review from Amazon:
"This book made me into the 'planner' of activities of our neighborhood [sic] troop (well back when i was a wee boy in 92), no wonder we had so much fun. Must have book."
