Résumé: Cartoonist Brian Bassett is in rare form in his newest book, Minivanity, trailing his hapless hero as he slinks into a minivan support group. It's only the latest adventure of the creatively challenged Adam Newman, who captures the delights and distresses of early parenthood. Readers of both genders -- whether they work outside or inside the home -- identify with the Newmans' routines and responsibilities, and appreciate Bassett's ability to make it all seem humorous.
