"A truly twisted fairy tale that is perfect for teens who enjoy the macabreIn his offbeat and inimitable style, Larson presents a biology through his narrator, an earthworm." — School Library Journal "There's a Hair in My Dirt! is hysterical . . . more entertaining than any science class I remember and the foreword by biologist Edward O. Wilson proves it's legit." — Washington Post "The comic genius, the author of the blackly buoyant and sorely missed Far Side comic strip ... Mr. Larson is among us again, not as a syndicated cartoonist, but as a contemporary fabulist." — New York Times
Gary Larrson creator of the phenomenally successful cartoon, The Far Side(R), grew up in Tacoma, Washington. As a kid he liked to draw but never formally studied art or considered being a cartoonist. His real love was biology, which ultimately became a frequent topic in his cartoon panel. Larson has the distinction of having the scientific community name a biting louse and a butterfly after him. He lives in Seattle, Washington--above ground.
