Book Description
With its zany drawings and intriguing quotes, A Freak Of Nature offers a unique and funny perspective of everyday life on this planet. Be it a housing development, a freeway, a clear-cut forest or a simple hiking trail, humans are having a negative impact on the natural ecosystem. This environmental cartoon book brings our “not-so-environmentally friendly” idiosyncrasies to light in such a way people are bound to not only stop and laugh, but stop and think. Through single-panel cartoons, the publication depicts everyday foibles and quirks of mankind, and the potential harmful effects on the environment around them. The drawings are complemented by quotes from well-known people (past and present) regarding humor, nature, and life in general. While the overlying theme is nature, not everything is a cartoon or quote with an environmental message. Some simply go straight for the funny bone. After all, as Abraham Lincoln once said: “...If I did not laugh I should die.”
