Marmaduke Rides Again!

Brad Anderson’s beloved, wordless Great Dane returns in this quirky Scholastic Book Services series from 1968 to 1984, with writer Dorothy Leeming joining Anderson for three issues of gentle, family-friendly chaos. Centered on the oversized, mischief-prone Marmaduke, the strip’s silent, expressive gags capture the everyday humor of life with a rambunctious pet. Though brief, it stands as a charming, accessible entry in the long-running newspaper comic’s history, tailored for young readers during the era of Scholastic’s classroom book clubs.
