Synopsis
It's perceptive. It's irreverent. But, more than anything, FoxTrot is reliably funny year after year, strip after strip. FoxTrot Collection is the latest collection of strips featuring the funny and flawed Fox family. It marks the 23rd collection of this comic strip staple that can be found in more than 1,000 newspapers worldwide every day. FoxTrot Collection is the latest chronicle of the chaotic Fox family-parents Roger and Andy, teenagers Peter and Paige, and ten-year old Jason and his pet iguana, Quincy. This book finds Roger behind his keyboard struggling to write a spy novel, prompting helpful writing advice from Jason such as "the 'on' switch is that little round one." The others add to the insanity, with Jason battling video games, Paige searching for a personal assistant, Peter eating and eating, and Andy stressing through it all.Everyone experiences day-to-day turmoil in their family life, which is why Bill Amend's FoxTrot Collection is sure to resonate with readers across the globe.

Reviews
Adult/High School-This collection lives up to the appeal of its 16 predecessors. Hyperintelligent and annoying Jason seems to be growing up, but he's still capable of tormenting his older siblings, Paige and Peter, as they go through the trials of high school exams. Amend is consistently funny and occasionally insightful, and the three youngsters, as well as their parents, Roger and Andy, cover the spectrum of family dynamics. A series of comics featuring excerpts from their father's painful attempts at writing a spy novel is particularly amusing. Amend's drawings are clean and consistent, and both the artistic style and the mischievous source of humor evoke memories of Bill Watterson's "Calvin and Hobbes" titles.
