Goodbye Teena, you’ll be missed. Too bad the production schedule for Sunday papers apparently kept this from being an appropriate farewell strip, but yesterday’s episode was touching and is how I’ll remember the end of PreTeena. Best of luck to Allison Barrows, whatever her future may hold.

Aww, bleeep it. I’ll miss this strip. It was still funny, unlike some that have on years or decades past their prime.

It was a daily favorite. And when Johnson stayed at school with Jeri when she missed a class trip to see “The Taming of the Shrew,” my wife had me frame the episodes for presentation to her principal. I made a second copy. It hangs on a wall in our house.
Barrows indicated the strip may continue in some form on the Internet. I hope to see it if that happens, but at this point I’m not sure how her fans will find out.

I loved this strip and I’m sorry to see it end. My two girls could not see themselves in it, but Oh, did I laugh (and cry). The bra-buying episodes are unequalled in anything else today.

I just saw a photo of ms. Barrows… she looks just like Teena’s Mom. Oh Ms. Barrows, you did such a good job and made a lot of us so delighted with your characters. I am so sorry to see you go.

PreTeena by Allison Barrows

Remember those transitional years between childhood and adolescence -- the days when you were playing on the swing set one minute, and daydreaming about the fifth-grade love of your life the next? This is the life of Teena Keene -- almost 11 years old, a fifth grader and a good student. She’s an avid inline skater and not quite ready to give up her dolls. But makeup and boys, particularly Gordo Brandt, are beginning to vie for her attention. Teena teeters between child and budding teen, and enjoys being a little of both.
