When I was a teen, I’d pull this off my parents’ bookshelf and read through it, so I got myself a copy to relive that nostalgia.

I am reminded of nothing so much as Bucky, the featured player in "Get Fuzzy," Darby Conley's strip about the hapless Rob Wilco and his two pets. Satch, the resident canine, is an innocent, willing-to-please...
