Alice: I can count to 6. Mom: Good for you! You learn something new every day! Alice: Every day? Mom: Yes. Alice: Every single day? Mom: Uh-huh. Alice: Every single solitary day!?! Mom: Um... Alice: I'm doomed. Petey: My advice: take it day by day.

I learned from Yahoo! Answers Blog a few days ago that you can also wear blue (not just green) on St. Patrick’s Day.

Yup! Every [fill in the blank] day, Alice!—But, hark, what’s this? Petey is reading Ronald Searle instead of Little Neuro?! Clearly, this is a comic strip, not Real Life!P.S. Check out Richard’s Blog (➔) for info on this week’s guest artist!

I like Alice’s Charlie Brown eyes in panel #3 and her deer-caught-in-the-headlights eyes in the last panel.

Alice may grow up to be a female Calvin.

Alice would fit right in as one of Ronald Searle’s “Belles of St. Trinians!”

@ИOMЯOMAnd exactly why would one believe what they read on Yahoo! Answers? I would strongly suggest doing more research before you spread such rumors around. Because until you have a better source than Yahoo! Answers, it is simply that, a rumor.

These weeks of substitutes make an interesting display of who gets Richard Thompson’s tone & take, and who doesn’t. Ruben Bolling got it. Mo Willems (whose books I enjoy) doesn’t.

Mr. Willems is definitely channeling Charles Schulz, especially in panels three and five.

I’ve been very much enjoying the guest cartoonists and their take on Richard’s characters. Thank you all!

Such a great book. I only remember a few from it. Like flush, share, and eat cookies. Wasn’t the sequel called ‘It Was On Fire When I Laid Down’ or something like that?
