REGINA MINUDRI

Some [of the cartoons in My Crowd] are old favorites and some are new, but all are delightful cartoons in the inimitable, macabre, Addams' style. An archaeologist looking at cave drawings sees E = MC²; a respectable-appearing devil asks Avis if they'd like to be No. 1; Santa Claus suggests to his elves that perhaps this year they ought to charge a little something; a family smilingly views the vista through their new picture window—a graveyard. As cartoons and monster movies are usually popular with YA's, this ought to do quite well.

Regina Minudri, in a review of "My Crowd," in School Library Journal, an appendix to Library Journal, Vol. 17, No. 4, December, 1970, p. 84.
