I found some books at the library by Berkley Breathed. They are children's books, but I think they will probably upset my kids! But, I find them wonderful stories for older children and adults.
The first is Pete and Pickles. This is a story about how one practical Pig deals with change in his life. It's also a love story. The second book Mars needs Moms, is a cute story about sacrificing for your children. What do these books have in common? I have loved Berkley Breathed's characters, stories, and drawings since I was about 10 years old. The illustrations in the book are great. You may find it odd to receive inspiration from children's books from a comic strip artist. But, even if you are skeptical take a look at the books! I love the last shot in "Mars needs Moms", and the image of Pete standing in the open door pointing at Pickles from the first story is great!
