This book is as good as Garfield has always been. I could only afford to buy the first 4 books as a kid. I never was able to by any of the others during their original run. I remember reading parts of this book in K-Mart as a kid wishing I could get it. I also read these strips in the newspaper.
It's MISSING the last page of the original release!

Is Jim Davis trying to pull a George Lucas on us? All of these re-released full-color books are missing the final page of the original release books. This re-release Fifth Book (Takes The Cake) is missing the "Garfield Characters That Didn't Make It" special page that was the final page of the original release. It would be a shame to have the special comic lost to time. Luckily I have all the originals. Normally I should give a 1-Star rating to show my displeasure with the missing content of this release. However, I simply can't bring myself to give a poor rating to a Garfield book.
Garfield takes the cake...and eats it too

I don't know what it is about Garfield that still gets me to buy his books ever year. I have been a fan since I was in second grade, will be 22 years in September. I think what appeals me to the lazy fat cat is his sharp wit and cynicism. Just like Garfield, I hate Mondays with an immense passion and I love lasagna. One of my personal favorite books in the entire series is "Garfield Takes the Cake", the fifth volume of Garfield comic strips. I loved it when Garfield's grandfather pays Garfield a visit. I thought it was a nice touch. I got to see where Garfield got his looks from. I also loved it when Garfield met Arlene. Talk about oil and water. Arlene is definitely Garfield's equal when she is able to match wits with the fat cat. And I love all the fat jokes Jon makes and Garfield's reaction. The camping expedition is a definite classic Garfield moment. No matter how old I get, I can never get tired of reading Garfield. He is my escape from a crazy world known as reality.
GARFIELD RULES!
