My Hot Dog Went Out, Can I Have Another?: A Fox Trot Collection »

Bill Amend was born in New England but moved to the San Francisco Bay area when he was 12. He is a graduate of Amherst College with a degree in physics. While in school, he contributed to the school newspaper doing twice-weekly editorial cartoons. After graduation, he worked for a brief time in the animation/film industry. His comic strip FoxTrot became syndicated in 1988. He lives in the Midwest with his wife and two children.

In his 18th collection of the fabulous comic strip, FoxTrot creator Bill Amend delivers a look at teen and family life that is consistently fresh, irreverent, and wacky. The antics of adolescent siblings Jason, Peter, and Paige try parents Roger and Andy but deliver laughs to readers as they're drawn into their chaotic world.

The wildly popular and enduring strip has won-and kept-fans nationwide, as they keep coming back for more of the crazy life of the Fox family. Amend keeps his comedy fresh by dipping into the pop culture pool, which never fails to provide plenty of fodder for him to parody brilliantly.
