Everyone's favorite fringe hominid returns in Roumieu's raucous follow-up to 2005's Me Write Book: It Bigfoot Memoir. Narrated by the grammatically challenged Bigfoot himself, this latest series of adventures finds the forest creature taking to the road "like Kerouac," doling out life lessons and observations on society. Tackling issues from global warming ("lower carbon emission by chase Bigfoot on floating log in river rather than truck, helicopter or hovercrafts") to crumbling communities (the squirrels in Bigfoot's old neighborhood "now bury rock of crack instead of nuts"). Bigfoot is a brutally honest social critic. He also strives to set the record straight and debunk common myths: "Bigfoot no grant wishes like leprechaun or genie" and when one hears Bigfoot stomping around the woods, help him out because "Bigfoot not as confident as might first seem." Roumieu's hilarious, effortless illustrations and handwritten text make each page a delight. Bigfoot is well on his way to becoming, as he outlines in his "self improve" plan, the "Oscar Wilde of the woods." (May)
