This second volume of Gronk comics is just as full of humor and warmth as the first. In this collection, Gronk continues to live with Dale, Kitty, and Harli and explore life in the human world. Several events were particularly funny to me. One was Gronk's reaction to Dale dog-sitting for her brother's pug. Gronk mistakes the dog for a really cute monster and has a crush on him. She acts out romantic scenes from several movies - "Titanic", "Dirty Dancing", and "Say Anything." (I'd really like to know where she comes up with all the wigs and costumes.) Another laugh-out-loud moment was when Gronk went around the house gluing googly eyes onto everything to "make new friends." My favorite was the picture of the cat's rear end with googly eyes pasted on either side of her tail. In the first book, Gronk was disappointed to find out that they had no neighbors for her to visit at Halloween. This year, Dale has decorated the house and even dressed in a Gryffindor uniform to hand out treats to Gronk, who is dressed as a Ghostbuster. They also stake out the house to try and see Santa; they sit in the car with pizza, donuts, cocoa, and binoculars and watch the chimney.

If you haven't tried out this webcomic or the earlier anthology, you really need to do so. They are suitable for all ages and have hilarious pop culture references scattered throughout the scenes.

I read an e-book provided by the publisher through NetGalley.

I really like this series. It has heart. It’s good for all ages. And Gronk is like a two year old who is really 129.
