America's sassiest, grouchiest, funniest, and chubbiest cat is up to his old tricks—and up to some new tricks too! Garfield celebrates living by fighting fleas, falling in love, and composing a history of dogs. This fourth Garfield extravaganza also features A Morning with Garfield and Garfield's only biography of his creator, Jim Davis.

The GARFIELD CLASSICS series collects the early years of the Garfield comic strip. Garfield may have gone through a few changes, but one thing has stayed the same: his enormous appetite for food and fun. So laugh along with the classic cat, because classics are always in style.

Jim Davis was born on July 28, 1945, in Marion, Indiana. He later attended Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana, where he distinguished himself by earning one of the lowest cumulative grade point averages in the history of the university. The Garfield strip was born on June 19, 1978, syndicated in forty-one U.S. newspapers.

Davis has had many successes with Garfield, including four Emmy Awards for Outstanding Animated Program and induction into the Licensing Hall of Fame (1998), but his most prized awards are from his peers in the National Cartoonist Society: Best Humor Strip (1981 and 1985), the Elzie Segar Award (1990), and the coveted Reuben Award (1990) for overall excellence in cartooning.
