Richard Thompson's Cul de Sac, is a comic strip about the life of a pre-school girl named Alice Otterloop. It is a light-hearted comic strip centered around a four-year old girl and her suburban life experiences on a cul-de-sac with her friends Beni and Dill, older brother Petey and her classmates at Blisshaven Academy pre-school. Alice describes her father's car as a "Honda-Tonka Cuisinart" and talks to the class guinea pig, Mr. Danders. She has the typical older brother who plays jokes on her, and she contemplates ways to keep the scary clown from jumping out of the jack-in-the-box with friends.

Once you’re old enough, the humor in the yodeling duck comes ‘round again.

Is it possible for Cul de Sac to get any more wonderful?

Never to young to learn “how to encourage other drivers to drive correctly”. Only the hand signals & choice of words change as you get older.

When I was driving my daughter home from the hospital after she was born, some jerk did something stupid that caused me to say something encouraging. My wife said, “Well, there goes THIS kid’s innocence.”

When my son was little his mother lived an hour away.
Every visitation we had two hours of drive time to kill.
We filled the time with songs and stories and silliness.
Sometimes the drive was as much fun as anything else we did on visitation.

Not sure which is worse….Road Rage or Yodeling Ducks.

oh yes when my youngest was 5 he spent the afternoon “helping” our neighbor build something in their back yard and came home with a whole new vocabulary, i am sure those encouraging words were pretty much the same

Ah, my mom used to like “helpful encouragement” too!

Cul de Sac is fast becoming the new Calvin & Hobbes for me - and that’s high praise indeed.

I agree with you. It has it’s own independent magic from other comics that I’ve loved, but that same glorious feeling.

I love Alice’s eyes where she’s staring through the window like she needs help.
Help me mommy!. Wuck, Wuck, Wuck, Wuck.

Now I can just picture MY kids when they were little - Do you know what Dad did TODAY? Sort of humbling….

That’s not fair; I’m sure he’ll know all the words by the time he’s 15.

My old man used to cluck like a chicken. The more aggressive he became the nastier the chicken sounded.
Ya heard me?
