Rating:  Summary: Charming and fun Review: At first glance I thought this was just a Calvin & Hobbes ripoff. And there is a resemblance. But the difference is vital - the dog. This strip is first and foremost about the relationship between a boy and his dog. Anyone who loved a dog as a child, or wanted to, will be drawn into this charming strip.And just as Rover is a real dog, Red is a real boy. He has an obnoxious big brother, wants to be an astronaut, and has a crush on Marcia Brady. After a while you'll realize that Red and Rover live in the past - somewhere in the seventies if fashion is any indication. It's by design. This strip is imbued with the nostalgia for a better, simpler time. Give R&R a shot.
Rating:  Summary: Red and Rover: A Boy, A Dog, A Time, A Feeling Review: Brian Basset book should be on every bookshelf from child to adult. The story of a boy and his dog is timeless. The book is not just for the fans of his comic strip. In this day and age of...violence, and terrorism all over the media, this book will transport you to a time that will bring back memories of your own childhood. With Christmas and Chanukah only a few months away, this book in my opinion will make the perfect gift for anyone.
Rating:  Summary: Awwwwwww... Review: If Red and Rover doesn't give you the warm fuzzies, you must be a cat person. This collection of comics is so sweet and adorable, you just want to give it a hug. The simple retro-style artwork perfectly matches this nostalgic story of a young boy with NASA aspirations and a dog who would follow him to the moon and back. These faithful companions are joined by Martin, Red's terrible teen brother and their parents. If you ever had a canine best friend when you were growing up, this book will definitely bring back memories.

Rating:  Summary: Love the Dog!! Review: Red's awful cute, but I just can't help loving Rover. The relationship between Red & Rover certainly reminds me of the relationship I had with my dog when I was a child. Rover is also an embodiment of the three dogs I have now. I love the comic strip, and I look forward to more compilations of the stip in book form. Thank you!!!
