Stone Soup by Jan Eliot, 128 pages

This is the first collection for Stone Soup, a comic my family has gotten hooked on in the newspaper. Val is a single mom after her husband died, raising two girls. Alix is 9 and Holly 13, and Val also has her mother, sister and 2-year-old nephew living with her. These comics are hilarious, and it's been really neat seeing how the characters were different in the beginning of the strip. You wouldn't believe how many different strips had myself or another family member making everyone else read it.
