Synopses & Reviews
Like best friends who've been together year after year, through thick and thin, Cathy and her adoring public have created a solid and stable relationship. Faithful readers count on their cartoon heroine to tell it like it is, whether the subject's dating, shopping, or parental responsibilities. For more than two decades, Cathy and her fans have shared life and laughs in an amusing, endearing way. In Shoes: Chocolate for the Feet, the admiration continues. Women immediately comprehend this connection between two of Cathy's downfalls-food and shopping. Cathy continues to battle the bulge, constantly losing the tug-of-war between her thin clothes and a well-stocked refrigerator. She dates, reluctantly, but never finds Mr. Right. She's a successful career woman, but still feels like a little girl when she calls Mom for advice. For more than 20 years, millions of women have hilariously identified with Cathy's struggles with the four basic guilt groups: food, love, mother, and career.
