X-Treme Parenting: A Baby Blues Treasury (Volume 28)

This is an excellent example of the authors recycling prior released material to sell another book! First of all, I love the Baby Blues strip and have all of the collections of strips that have been published up until now. I was excited to see that another collection was being released of what I assumed was strips published in newspapers over the last year as these collections normally are. I started reading this collection. I thought as I read that I had already seen these. I looked at the first few pages to see if the authors mention the prior release of these strips, but could find nothing at first glance.This book is a combined collection of "Briefcase Full of Baby Blues" and "Night Shift" which are the last two books that were published. You only find this out by the small print on the bottom of the outside back cover. This is deceitful to readers, but I guess the authors laugh all the way to the bank. I won't order their collections again on the "pre-order" option by Amazon again. I will wait in the future for the book to be in my local chain bookstore so I don't get cheated again. The books are never released anyway when the publisher says it will be. It has been 30 to 60 days later each time.

Love baby blues! So relatable! Book came in great condition as expected!

Funny as always.

A request by a granddaughter. They love reading these in the newspaper and we share the laughs with each other. She loves the book, read it entirely right after opening the gift.

My 9 year old daughter loves Baby Blues. She was very happy with this Treasury.

b.butler, this isn't recycled materials, treasuries are compilations of the smaller books. they're all like that! if you've read any other baby blues treasuries you should know this. anyways, another great baby blues book

Baby Blues are our favorites

Loved it!

Great book - quickly shipped.

Excellent if you've had kids
