Garfield dreams of a luxury vacation in Hawaii, but Jon is cutting corners (did someone say tight wad?) so it's off to paradise instead -- ticky tacky Paradise World, that is. The pool is empty and... This description may be from another edition of this product.
When Garfield learns that John is taking him and Odie on vacation he dreams of a wonderful paradise escape but that isn't to be. They're travelling 3rd class to an El-Cheapo resort on an island where the natives worship the only car the rental place has to offer. Why do the worship it? Because once, many years ago, the local volcano threatened to go off and destroy their tribe. A stereotypical 50's rebel teen drove his classic car (the exact same one John has rented) into the volcano to keep the gods happy. Now the volcano is getting angry again and the natives expect John to drive into the volcano just like the James Dean guy did before!The book is full of bright and colorful pictures and Garfield's orange and black fur definitely looks better here than in the black and white pocket books. There are other full-color Garfield stories (such as Garfield in the Rough, Garfield on the Town), but this is one of the best.Recommended for adults and children who love that cat.

This book is one of the better Garfield books because it is in color. It gets crazy, but who cares? Garfield and Odie's escape from the volcano was really cool!
