Witty, urbane, sassy, and downright delightful, Garfield was born (where else?) in the cozy kitchen of an Italian restaurant on a cold winter's night in 1978. When the restaurant owner sold him to a pet store, "little" Garfiel thought he was history. Instead he made it...

For on that fateful day, a hapless gentleman named Jon Arbuckle walked through the pet shop doors. Believe it or not, Garfield weighed five pounds, six ounces then. But thanks to a wonderfully obsessive passion for pasta, he quickly blossomed into America's #1 fat cat. Lasagnas beware.

Lock up the lasagna, chain the chicken, and hold on to your funny bone. America's favorite cat is hungrier, funnier, lazier, grouchier, and more lovable than ever! Watch (and watch out!) as this champion heavyweight fights fleas, battles the Sludge Monster, falls head over tail in love, gets hijacked by a duck, visits a psychiatrist - among other antics - all in the name of laughs!

It's a whirlwind time for our #1 cat as he...
Meets a long lost relative...
Falls head over tail in love...
Gets hijacked by a duck...
Escapes from the city pound...
And as always, manages to fit in plenty of food, sleep and sass! He's a fast talking, late-sleeping, cynical, lovable cat. He hassles Odie, Jon and Nermal and enchants kids of all ages. Riding on the crest of four big best sellers, he's back - better, fatter, and funnier than ever before!

See the famous furry feline as he...goes fishing...asks a vital question...faces another week...eats his birthday cake...and of course, he's as sassy and lovable as ever when he chases Odie, plays with Nermal and Pooky, and makes like both wicked and wonderful for his owner, Jon. Here is Garfield in his funniest book yet!!
