Underfoot Menagerie: More Street Art by David Zinn by David Zinn

More of the delightful art. With some technical talk about pareidolia -- seeing pictures in things -- and anamorphisis, the illusion of it's being three-d at one angle -- this one has some shots of the wrong angles and the interesting effects it can produce.

Also a section with live plants (I like the alyssum sheep), a series using the same two metal plates for many chalk sketches, a few in paint, more about mock-holes, and other tidbits.

You Have Those Wild Eyes Again, Mooch: A New MUTTS Treasury by Patrick McDonnell

Another year of Mutts. Mooch gets those wild eyes and has to do wild things -- anything can happen (except Earl getting them, too). The annual seaside vacation, the spring dance, a riff on Charles Schultz's observation that a cartoonist has to do the same thing over and over without repeating himself, a time travel sequence, and more, including a number of one-shots.
