There are calendars featuring sports, movies, television series, cartoon characters, superheros, animals, landscapes, and just about anything your heart can imagined.

Final Thoughts

I always love picking out the perfect calendars every year. Yes, that's plural! I get at least three wall calendars and one desk (day-to-day) calendar for myself. And that doesn't include the ones I buy for gifts.

I've been a big Garfield fan since I was a little bitty kid, so I was excited when Andrews McMeel Publishing sent me the Garfield 2019 Day-to Day Calendar to feature on this year's Holiday Gift Guide. It's a nicely put-together calendar with colorful day-to-day comic strops featuring the fat cat Garfield at his best. I love the added daily extras on the back of each page.

Overall, the Garfield 2019 Day-to Day Calendar would make an entertaining gift for just about anyone.

The calendar can be purchased on Amazon.com.
