Animal Crackers #12624

Ros Bollen's *Animal Crackers* gets the paperback treatment in this 1976 Tempo Books collection, promising "the hilarious adventures of Lyle Lion, Dodo, Lana, Eugene, and the entire Animal Crackers menagerie." The cover sets the tone perfectly: a rotund, world-weary elephant dominates the yellow background while a wild-haired, red-maned character scrambles up its side, and a bemused stork perches in the upper corner looking thoroughly unimpressed by the whole situation. At just 95 cents, this is a cheerful slice of comic-strip fun that captures Bollen's loose, expressive cartoon style in one compact package.
