Stone Soup is a comic strip with wide appeal, syndicated to over 200 newspapers for more than 15 years. Stone Soup features an extended, blended multi-generational family, and the humor comes from their chaotic, messy and joyful life. From the working mom trying to stay professional while her middle-schooler melts down on her office phone, to the toddler who prefers wearing his potty as a hat, all mixed with the surprise of an oops baby on the way...the Stone Soup clan lives a life just about as messy as it gets. Fortunately for us, their chaos makes for a lot of laughs. Stone Soup follows the lives of Val and Joan, two sisters who, together with their families (four kids, one step-dad, one grandmother, one yappy dog), live next door to each other, just across the fence. Sometimes the fence is not high enough, but deep down they all depend on each other for a full and complete life. In this collection, Joan and Wally discover they are expecting an unexpected baby. The full impact of this, from oops to PUSH! plays itself out amidst the other storylines and humor created during daily life with the Stones. Stone Soup has loyal fans in all age groups, and is especially appealing to children 8 and up, parents of all ages, working women and men alike.
