Jeremy and Mom: A Zits Retrospective You Should Definitely Buy for Your Mom

Give Mom the Gift That Lets Her Know She's Not Alone

"Zits has been more valuable to my husband and me in understanding our teenage boy than any counselor or psychiatrist ever could be, and believe me, we've been there." —Zits reader

For a fifteen-year-old boy, it's hard to imagine anyone more hopelessly out of touch and just generally embarrassing than his mom. For the mothers of these boys, it's hard to fathom how their little darlings have grown up into grunting, uncommunicative recluses. While nothing (except perhaps time) can remedy this relationship, there is one message moms can take comfort in: You are not alone.

Picking the best from a decade of comic strips, the creators of Zits introduce Jeremy and Mom: A Zits Retrospective You Should Definitely Buy for Your Mom (Andrews McMeel Publishing, $16.99). This collection of cartoons captures the frustrating struggle involved in parenting a teenager and provides a much-needed comedic antidote to teen angst.

This hilarious collection exemplifies why millions of fans enjoy Zits daily. It will make a fantastic gift for all of the moms in your life.
