Wrapped-Up Foxtrot: A Treasury with the Final Daily Strips

A gift for me? Ooooo


Amend, Bill. Wrapped-Up Foxtrot: A Treasury with the Final Daily Strips. Kansas City, MO : Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2009.

Plot: The text provides a two-year collection of Foxtrot comics, including the final daily strips. The comics explore the adventures of the Fox family. Notable arcs include Peter and Paige cookies, camping in the backyard, and gold farming in WarQuest.

Genre: Comics

Reading Level: Suitable for grades 2 and up

Similar Titles: Camp Foxtrot, Zits, Baby Blues

Personal Thoughts: I grew up reading Foxtrot in the daily newspaper, so the text represents a bit of an ending for me. Amend's family sitcom-styled humor provides an entertaining but easily read text. While the longer story arcs will be missed, the Sunday strips continue to reach newspapers nationwide.
