Product Description

Like best friends who've been together year after year, through thick and thin, Cathy and her adoring public have created a solid and stable relationship. Faithful readers count on their cartoon heroine to tell it like it is, whether the subject's relationships, shopping, or parental responsibilities.

In Shoes: Chocolate for the Feet, women immediately comprehend this connection between two of Cathy's downfalls-food and shopping. Cathy continues to battle the bulge, constantly losing the tug-of-war between her thin clothes and a well-stocked refrigerator. Millions of women have hilariously identified with Cathy's struggles with the four basic guilt groups: food, love, mother, and career.

Customer Reviews

Cathy gets better and better!
I have read all of the "Cathy" books and have enjoyed them all. If you are already a Cathy fan you will not be disappointed when you read this book. Cathy is funny to us because most of us can relate to her situations. Enjoy!!

Shoes...better than chocolate
Oh, what can I say...I have always loved Cathy. I read a borrowed copy a short while ago and I'm getting my own copy now. I'm sure many of us are "Cathy" ourselves in many ways...our battles with diets, nagging moms, ex-boyfriends, etc. This is yet another wonderful collection and what better subject than "shoes". Men just don't understand how far a woman would go just to get that perfect pair to match a special outfit. As long as they look good on our feet, who cares how uncomfortable (or how costly) they are! The carzy shoe sales, the forever-same looking salesperson, the dog who loves eating shoes...all your favourites are definitely back to make you laugh...and to walk out the door right away to buy another new pair! Defiitely recommend it.

Shoes: Give Me A Good Pair To Kick This Book Away!
I am sooo tired of this strip that I could scream. Here we have one of the worst attempts to belittle all that is good in America. What was Cathy doing with her boss anyways? I thought we girls moved away from that years ago? And what about her "boyfreind" could he be just a little more dishabille? What was puzzling to me was the fact that Cathy gets away with her tirades and no one has the sense to stop her. Please bring the original "Cathy" back...
