The Bill the Cat Story: A Bloom County Epic

40 pp. | Philomel | September, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-399-54662-4 $18.99
(3) K-3 After being shipped to the North Pole to be a "sled cat," wild-eyed, spiky-furred Bill the Cat haplessly makes his way back to lonely child Binkley via ancient Egypt and outer space. No one but Bloom County fans will get this friendship origin story between three of the long-running comic's main characters (Opus is there, too), but that group should be entertained.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
