Short Review:
"A strong, funny comics anthology for younger readers
This book features an excellent selection of stories aimed at elementary school age readers. Most of the stories are humorous, and a couple are even moving. I loved the range of topics and art style, done by some of today's most popular and/or celebrated creators. "- Sterg Botzakis (Amazon.com)
