Great Book by Berkeley Breathed. As always this author has a great sense of humor for kids and adults.
Getting facts straight is so hard. November 9, 2005

The Mary Kay moratorium occured in 1989 and they banned animal testing in 1999. This trade paperback compilation of comics was printed in 1989 which means that the strips therein appeared first newspapers during 1987 and 1988. Thus, while Mary Kay would (I am sure) deny that they make corporate choices based on Sunday paper comic strips, the fact remains that Breathed was criticizing M K before they agreed to the moratorium, not after.

Mary Kay hasn't conducted animal testing since 1989 and has signed the "Peta Pledge" years ago. Bloom County is great but it didn't sway Mary Kay....
One of the best of the Bloom County collections. October 17, 2005

Which is interesting, considering that it's very late in the run of the series, and for the most part, the earlier strips are funnier. But this one's the exception to that rule; most of the political satire here is as relevant today as it was 16-17 years ago, and just as funny.
Great Book - helped persuade Mary Kay to stop testing! September 6, 2005

I am a long time Bloom County Fan and I loved this book - as really all of the books! I just wanted to point out that Mary Kay cosmetics actually stopped animal testing after these comics hit the papers and consumers . . . how wonderful is that? Comics really CAN change the world . . .
