By John Zakour (writer) & Scott Roberts (artist)
Maria is a kid who sees things her own way- and expects the world to see it her own way too! Her friend Joey is more practical. He helps keep her grounded, though that’s as easy as handling a Thanksgiving balloon in a hurricane. Sue is special and she knows it- better than anyone. She’s writing her autobiography now, but she’ll live it later. Bob takes things slower. Ms. Payne is their teacher- she enjoys her job, she truly does. She’d enjoy it even more without the students.

Don’t know why there’s no close up on today’s strip.

At least it’s still large enough to be read. Unlike several of the strips here today that are even smaller than usual :-(

Maria may look a little subtley like Rita but she reminds me more of Lucy Van Pelt!

If it’s “pay to play” I’ld pay her in Monopoly money.

I’d tell her that she’s only popular because they hang out with her, so Sue should pay them.

Seeing how small strips are printed, and knowing some readers may be seeing it on handhelds, I’ve tried to make sure the lettering is legibly large. Certainly larger than if we had tried the strip 30 years ago.

That isn’t a great idea. Only someone so enamored of themselves would be so money grubbing to do so. Ethics is a foreign concept to that narcissist.

Most blonds are dyed.

Not usually little kids. I was blond when I was younger than my avatar picture. It was natural.

Both my sister’s and my hair were blonde when we were kids. Mine started turning dark around the end of elementary / beginning of middle school. Hers took a bit longer to go dark.

Everyone in my family started out blond except my older brother. His was always dark. Mine got lighter again, but in a less colorful way…

Based on today’s strip I take it Maria lives in Illinois. :)
