Seniors' Discount: A For Better or For Worse Collection

Life Goes On...

Over the years, millions of readers have identified with the Patterson family as they have gone through many of life's most common milestones: graduations, marriages, and new careers, to name a few. With Seniors' Discount (Andrews McMeel Publishing, $12.95), Lynn Johnston's newest For Better or For Worse® collection, one more milestone is on the horizon . . . RETIREMENT!!! That's right. As Michael and Deanna face the challenges of parenting, Elizabeth accepts a new teaching position that brings her closer to home, and April continues to crave her independence, John and Elly are actually considering taking life a little easier.

Since 1979, For Better or For Worse® has followed the lives of the Patterson family, whose run-ins with the obstacles of everyday family life have made this comic a favorite of more than 220 million readers worldwide. There are no sensational plot twists here, just an ordinary family trying to balance the demands of work, children, and everything else in between. As one reviewer for the Chicago Tribune has put it, Lynn's "uncanny ability to see into the heart of daily life so accurately" has truly made this comic the success that it is today.
