Being a kid can be confusing. The grown-ups—parents and especially grandparents—get up to the craziest antics. School can be counted on to complicate one’s life. And then there are the mysteries of love… Trying to court Chen is a constant struggle for Cedric, who has to contend with shyness, misunderstandings, his own jealousy, poachers… Still. Confusing or not, it’s so much simpler when you’re nine! At least, that’s something his grandad would say…
This is just charming and great fun.  It’s nice to think that kids in the UK have the opportunity to read and look at these books.  I hope parents are taking advantage because literacy is still a problem in the UK and in my day comics encouraged reading and imagination.
Talking about “back in my day”….
