In rich, vibrant color for the first time in a half-century comes a guffaw-inducing selection of Little Lulu’s landmark adventures!

Little Lulu is one of the truly great all-ages comics, with a monthly series that lasted four decades, the zany high jinks of eight-year-old Lulu Moppet and her lovable pals are not only classics of children’s literature, but an indelible part of American popular culture. Her razor wit will tickle your brain and her sweet generosity will win your heart—Lulu is the All-American girl!

Experience the highlights of Little Lulu’s illustrious comedy career as they were meant to be seen—in luscious full color!

Staff Review:
That Little Lulu! She's quite a character. She's sassy but not obnoxious. Clever but not infallible. And, although she clearly is not a modern creation (I mean, Lulu and her friends run all over town unscheduled and unsupervised), her stories are just as amusing now as they must have been when she debuted 60+ years ago. And Lulu's world is presented in gorgeously vibrant color in this special collection.

Wearing her little red dress and pushing her ever-present doll carriage she invents her way out of scrapes involving her nemeses but also best friends in the boy's only club and real, incompetent truant officers and imaginary, incompetent witches. She's not the smartest kid in school and she owns up to not being a beauty but she is resourceful and confident and mostly kind to her friends.

I keep thinking that having Little Lulu on his side would have done the main character in the last book I read, Jimmy Corrigan, a world of good. I can see her taking him (either Jimmy, really, World's Fair era or present day) under her wing and telling him an almost instructive, but mostly just entertaining, story featuring Witch Hazel and sending him on his way knowing that one sharp cookie has got his back.
