• "Baldo is the 15-year-old title character in a hilarious new comic, the first nationally syndicated strip to depict a Latino family's lives. This refreshingly hip new collection captures the lifestyle and humor of the country's fastest-growing ethnic group through the adventures of a typical American teenager. The result is a merry combination of silliness that rings true, whether Baldo and his buddies are dreaming of girls or building the sweetest low-rider car imaginable."
• "When Baldo launched in April 2000, it appeared in nearly 100 newspapers and made history as the first-ever Hispanic comic strip. This book is a compilation of strips from the increasingly popular comic's second year."
