Transcript:
Miss Bliss: Thank you for doing our face-painting booth, Mrs. Otterloop! Mom: Well, I've never tried it before, so we'll see! Dill: Me first! Me first! Mom: What would you like, Dill? A bat or a spider or - Dill: I'd like to be taller! Mom: Ah-ha. Mm-hm. Hm-hm. Dill: Does this make me taller? Alice: Strangely, yes.

This is the best comic being done today - certainly rates with Peanuts and Calvin and Hobbes.
I bought the first Cul de Sac book recently, and my daughter read it. She couldn’t stop laughing out loud, nearly rolling on the floor. She hadn’t laughed like that since her brother was killed earlier this year. Thanks, Richard for restoring a little joy to our family.

It’s the smile. It’s uplifting and gives the illusion of height.

The new book – Childdren at Play – is a riot. Alice’s mother has such patience.
