THE BILL THE CAT SOTRY

Picture book by Berkeley Breathed, the Pulitzer Prize-winning creator of the “Bloom County” comic strip.

Full of sharp, satirical humor and characters that instantly entered the public consciousness, the “Bloom County” comic soared for nearly a decade. Now, more than twenty-five years after it ended, it has returned online, garnering over half a million Facebook fans – all in a few months!

The silliest character from the strip has always been Bill the Cat, and despite the razor-sharp humor brought by Berkeley, Bill is a character even young readers can adore. Leaving behind the politics of the strip, Berkeley is focused on a simple, fun, and zany story about a boy and his cat.

Berkeley Breathed’s comics “Bloom County,” “Outland,” and “Opus,” have appeared in over 1,200 newspapers worldwide. His previous books include FLAWED DOGS, MARS NEEDS MOM!, and PETE & PICKLES.
