About this title

About the Author:

Ray Friesen (Tehachapi, CA) has been cartooning professionally since he was 12. He is 18 now, and poised to take over the world, one cartoon at a time.

From Booklist:

Following A Cheese Related Mishap (2005), Friesen delivers the second volume of the Lookit! humor anthology, featuring the story of Melville, the clever but lazy penguin. This time Melville and company become embroiled in a race to find enough gold to pay the rent on the castle of Pellmellia, hoping to help the cheese-loving king beat a group of silly, cookie-obsessed pirates. Other, shorter stories include a piece about a character named Captain Cautious and a sepia-washed western parody about two out-of-work birds. There is one problem: Friesen's humor tends toward younger readers, while his language and ideas seem better suited to a more sophisticated audience. The art, however, ranges so widely (from digital Claymation to outright cartoons) that the pages remain visually engaging throughout, and the humor comes at a furious pace, with sometimes four of five jokes crammed into a single panel. Lots to look at here. Jesse Karp
