All About April: Our Little Girl Grows Up!

April Patterson entered the world of For Better or For Worse in dramatic fashion when she was born at home during an ice storm on April 1, 1991. Since then she has continued to add surprise and sparkle to the Patterson family. Cartoonist Lynn Johnston has gathered her favorite strips about April, chronicling her fun-filled and rambunctious first 10 years. From the wonder she brought to the family as a tiny baby through her exploits as a toddler, her traumatic fall into a raging river and subsequent rescue by Farley, and her other adventures while growing up, making friends, and going to school, April's life is told through cartoons, new art, and written commentary. The Robert Tonner Doll Company is also celebrating April's 10th birthday with the debut of an April doll in August 2001.
