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.

Isn’t Petey old enough to go to toy store on his own while parents do their shopping? That’s how I get rid of my whining kids anyway.

Poor Peter. He took all the proper parental precautions, and even so Alice’s enthusiasm bloodied his nose. And now she’s tired of sitting! Beware!

‘Course, I’m a grampa, now; that makes a difference: get tired of em, you just call their parents to come get em.

That illustrates children very well, very young ones.

You might get rid of ‘em permanently like that, if you aren’t careful.

I continue to marvel at how realistic this strip is, yet so amusing. Often, I laugh out loud. Love it!!

Children, you can’t buy one for a million dollars … but there are days when you would cheerfully sell them … or even pay somebody to take them.

a kid is responsible for my first back injury – she was so excited to see me. she ran down the hall and jumped up in my arms and I wasn’t ready for her. we both went down. I never told her parents or her that my back was hurt.

My daughter hit me in the face with a golf club once. I’m pretty sure it was an accident.
