Peanut Butter and Jeremy’s Best Book Ever!

I had no idea that he had done so many of these stories. This book is right around 300 pages, with commentary between stories from Peanut Butter (the cat, in case you were wondering) and Jeremy (the crow). A few of these stories were put out in comic book form over the last 4 years or so, and I’m not sure if some of the other stuff is new material for this or if it was only done for random anthologies. Whatever the case, and despite its length, I can sum up where most of the stories go pretty simply. Peanut Butter is working on a file for his boss (an unseen James Kochalka, or someone remarkably similar), and Jeremy tries to find some way to either steal his hat or trick him into giving it up. That’s the gist of most of the stories, anyway. This is an all ages comic, meaning that there’s no swearing and a few neckties, and it’s another fun book from the man. Good stuff to read with any younger relatives you might have wandering around, and the commentary from the characters between stories is funny too. If you’re looking to solve the mystery of human existence, you might want to read something else. Other than that, it’s Kochalka quality!
