Synopsis

Garfield's Got the Magic Touch

Garfield knows what matters in life—whether he's stealing Jon's dinner, performing for his favorite audience, or simply pondering the vastness of space. And he must be doing something right, because this is his twentieth book and he's still going strong. Live it up, Garfield, and take your millions of fans along for the ride!

The GARFIELD CLASSICS series collects the early years of the GARFIELD comic strip in a larger, full-color format. Garfield may have gone through a few changes, but one thing has stayed the same: his enormous appetite for food and fun. So laugh along with the classic cat, because classics are always in style.
