Summary: What, Me Worry?
Review: "What, Me Pregnant?" is Johnstons answer to the Mad Magazine's phrase "What, Me Worry?". Johnston is trying to jumpstart a new catch phrase for her strip. In this novella we see the Patterson kids lampooning everything from Geo W. Bush to Fidel Castro. This type of humor is fine but then Johnston totally steals ideas from shows that have already been done. She does a spoof on local cable access called "Walts World", wich of coarse is a complete knock off of Wayne's World of the Saterday Night Live fame. She also pokes fun at aliens that have landed here on earth, claiming they are from France. The aliens have huge heads, a complete knockoff from the Coneheads. The aliens are called Spire Heads.
There is also a section about Elizabeth heading off to jail because she has picked up the habit of tipping over statues at National Parks.

Summary: Johnston provides us with laughs and tears over the years
Review: Johnston, having written for what seems to be a lifetime already, continues the story of the loveable "For Better or For Worse" family that many countries have come to love and treasure. One of the only 'real' families in comics, Johnston cleverly and eloquently mixes pain and laughter --- succinctly paraphrasing much of life.

"What, Me Pregnant?" is another chapter of the "For Better or For Worse" saga, with Elly finding herself pregnant... at 40! Her other kids in high school and preparing to go to college, this is unexpected and delightful for the fans of the series. This book tracks Elly's pregnancy and continues the personal tales of the other family members as they grow up -- and grow older. A wonderful book that will have you glued to the pages until the end.
