Review by Carol Pond
When Cam's mom, a school teacher, asked for a couple of comics with a "good message" that she could give out as rewards to students, Cam came through with these two short comics. Each is a four-page tale, plus covers, written and drawn competently; great for elementary school kids. Jason learns the hard way that it's best to study early, before you're too tired; Simone's school mates are taught to feel empathy. The messages come across nicely without being preachy.
