Animal Tales from Jack Cassady’s Monday Funnies

About the Book

This book is another result of my weekly cartoon/humor internet/e-mail feature, “Cassady’s Monday Funnies.” The purpose was to create “tail wagging” cartoons, especially for animal- and humor-loving readers. Animals play an important role in our lives, and they’ve become important actors in many of my cartoons. Sometimes they become cherished family members. Their antics and entertaining activities are the basis for many enjoyable moments, cleanups, and conversations. In this case, they provided the foundation for this cartoon humor book. I hope it brings you enjoyment, happiness, and pleasure. Remember, keep smiling and have fun with your pets.
