Rating:  Summary: New, Never-Before-Published Rose is Rose Art and Text Review: "I'm very proud of this book, and it's important that readers understand that this is not a collection of reprinted Rose is Rose comic strips. This is a colorful, 128-page hard cover "gift book" presenting a series of 64 new, never-before-published drawings and thoughts on the subject of peace of mind. The art, featuring Rose is Rose characters Rose, Jimbo, Pasquale and Peekaboo, and text are unabashedly derivative of early Charles Schulz books. While a few of the drawings are based on past Rose strips, all the art is 100% new from cover to cover. I hope you like it."

Rating:  Summary: content and animation are not up to par Review: I believe this book was nto the way ti whould have been. I believe it was very dry and unfunny. I had many strips that seemed to make no sense, and others so bland I could barely stand to reas them. the other thing I disliked was the animation. It seemed to have no depth or perception, and feel it could have been done much better wuiet easily. I realize my opinions do not agree witht he other readers, but it is just how I feel.
Rating:  Summary: VERY GOOD, VERY WARM, VERY BEST Review: I like the different colored, bright pages. I also like the simplicity of the thoughts, and how much they make you appreciate all the little things of everyday life. The illustrations are different than the usual compilations, but I must say a very refreshing change of pace. It's more fun to see never-before-seen art.
Rating:  Summary: I feel I am reading about myself! Review: I Love Rose! My name is Rose and when I first came across the comic strip it was awesome. I felt like someone was looking into my life and writing about it. Brady has done an awesome job this time, as always.I want to say that the insight is so close to my life that I get the chill reading the strip every day. I have a husband named Jim or James and a son who is a dead ringer for Pasquale and we have a cat named Georgia Peach. Our lives and Roses life paralell alot. I love the work and love Brady's writing!
Rating:  Summary: Nice as a gift, but I wouldn't have bought it Review: I received the book as a Christmas gift. Ten minutes later, I was finished reading it. Like one other reviewer, I am used to more "meat" in a comics book. If it was supposed to be a coffee table experience, it should have been sold in hardback with a glossy cover.
Rating:  Summary: Every page made me filled me with different emotions. Review: I switched between cossiness, pity, proud and joy. This little book filled me with memories of my childhood and I find something from my family everytime I look at it. Rose looks like me, Jimbo looks like my husband and Pasquale looks like my son. What else can I want? Thanks to Pat Brady for making us remember the little joys of everyday life.
Rating:  Summary: I love it Review: Rose is Rose is my favorite strip. It reminds me in some ways of my family. My folks are very close and I am a spoiled only child. Peekaboo is almost a carbon copy in her demeanor of my cat Animal. It's the most gentle strip in the papers and it really is my favorite. Thanks Pat.
