Product Description

The world is full of issues but none so pressing as those faced by a teenager. For proof, look no further than Zits, the timely teenage-focused strip that now appears in more than 1,100 newspapers worldwide.This two-time recipient of the National Cartoonists SocietyÂ’s Award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip follows the life of 15-year-old Jeremy Duncan, a kid bursting with questions, concerns, hormones, and insecurities. Cast adrift between the worlds of peer and parent, Jeremy survives by clinging to his sense of humor . . . the universal flotation device of the teenage years.Creators Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman pull all of this eating, dating, driving, and parental angst and energy together in Road Trip! Zits Sketchbook #7. This hilarious collection contains the very popular series of strips that follows Jeremy and his best amigo, Hector, as they actually (okay, and accidentally) get to test-drive their van. Yes, that van on the cover.

Customer Reviews

Growing fun about growing pains
At first I did not like this book as much as the 6 before it: too much of been there, done that.

But it stayed on my bookshelf and from time to time I browsed through it. And I found gems of humor and good spirit. Growing fun about growing pains.

And this is exactly what is so special about "Zits". Continue growing, Jeremy!

Love my zits~~
I love Zits... I so see both my son and daughter in Jeremy, the boy in the book.. It is so nice to know that I am not the only one in the world that has all these same issues.....

A fun afternoon
If you have ever had teenage kids, any of the Zits series will a smile to your face. Partly because of the humor the cartoonists see in the life of a 15 year old and partly because you have been there. After all, misery loves company and these cartoonists makes you realize that many of your experiences are every parents' experiences.
