Description

For fourteen years, cartoonist B.K. Taylor regaled and baffled readers with the good-natured goofiness of his odd suburban family, The Appletons, and his innocent cast of Canadians who encounter the outside world and the trials of everyday life in Timberland Tales. Taylor's art is richly, realistically, and subversively detailed. At first, you might think it's being played straight, but take a closer look …

With a foreword by comedian and star Tim Allen (Last Man Standing) and an afterword by horror writer R.L. Stine (Goosebumps; Fear Street).

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Critics praise Taylor's work as "hilariously and subversively written," with artwork that alone can provoke laughter. Tim Allen describes Norm Appleton as "the embodiment of an early sitcom dad -- a Ward Cleaver or Mr. Brady -- combined with Satan."
