    About this ebook

    It’s wintertime for our favorite furry friends, Earl and Mooch, and they have a lot to do to get ready to hibernate:
     
    Step 1: Fill their bellies with shnacky shnacks.
    Step 2: Cozy up on their people’s warm laps.
     
    Or maybe instead of hibernating, Mooch and Earl will help Shtinky Puddin’, Bip and Bop, and the rest of their buddies enjoy the beautiful and magical winter season. Take a peek at The Mutts Winter Diaries to find out.
     
    You can help your animal friends, too!  Check out the More to Explore section in the back of TheMutts Winter Diaries to find out how you can make sure winter critters stay warm and full of shnacks through the cold, snowy months.

      What an adorable book! There are so many frames that I highlighted because I am the same way in Winter! Or I could imagine my pets thinking similarly to Mooch and Earl! It's a very short book, just under 200 pages, but man, the cuteness abounds! I highly suggest this lovely collection of comics! Basically, I can't say enough, go out and get this cute book! I know I will! I want more!

      Mutts is a particularly fun comic strip and I'm not just saying that because my name is Earl! This collection, The Mutts Winter Diaries, collects a number of winter themed strips. If there is a drawback to this concept it is that many revolve around just a couple of themes (hibernation and snowflakes). What I find works with small children is a collection of these types of books and instead of going through a book in one or two sittings go through roughly a week's worth at a sitting from several different strips.The rating I am giving is because anyone who likes the strip will enjoy it and both young and old can relate to what they deal with. It is light, fun and wintry! Just allow yourself to enjoy a nice pleasant laugh as a break.Reviewed from an ARC made available by the publisher via NetGalley.

      This is a collection of winter-themed comic strips featuring Earl, Mooch and their various friends (human and animal). I agreed with so many of Mooch's comments about winter and snow! The Winter Diaries are pretty much what the gang gets up to or doesn’t get up to, in winter. They try hibernating. They meet a penguin, who may, just may, be a stand in for people in general, and they hang with bears. We see what the squirrels get up to and watch Mooch try to find two identical snowflakes. Some comics are funnier than others, but they're all such fun to read. Earl, Mooch and their friends truly capture the best best and worst in our feelings about winter. So much to identify with and laugh about.

      The artwork is as adorable as ever, and Mooch, Earl, and the gang are their usual goofy selves. I also loved how some of them were in color (no doubt originally printed in the Sunday paper).

      I especially loved the Human Society plug and tips in the More to Explore section at the end that talks about different critters in the winter time and how they stay warm. There are even suggestions for things you can do, and a note to keep pets inside where it's warm when it gets snowy outside.

      I realize this book is intended for younger readers but it is certainly a pleasure for all ages. If you love Mutts and winter, this is the perfect collection of comic strips. Also if you are an animal lover, Mutts does a lot of work for finding homes for shelter animals and supports rescuing pets rather than buying them from breeders. It’s hard not to like this strip.

      I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
