Dennis the Menace and His Friends Series #24
In "The Bamboo Boo-Boo," Mr. Wilson’s long-suffering patience reaches a breaking point when he decides a retirement home might be the answer to life with Dennis the Menace—only to find the reality of senior living isn’t quite the escape he imagined. Written by Fred Toole and illustrated by Owen Fitzgerald, this 1974 slice of suburban chaos captures the classic neighborhood charm with a touch of gentle satire. The cover by Owen Fitzgerald perfectly captures the mood of the moment.
