The kids are devoted to this series, and I support them in this, even when the books are a bit chaotic or tiresome, which sometimes they just are. Through a summer school-type setting, the 2 dozen or so frog children of a daddy fish (fish fry?), with guidance from Cat Kid (of the Dog Man series) and Molly the Tadpole, work on their own comic book projects from conception through submitting for publication. Each book subtly discusses different aspects of artistic creation, including embracing failure, basic drawing skills, storytelling, collaboration, dealing with editorial rejection, and appropriate goals. (There is in book 4 still no explanation for why the froglets are fathered by a fish, but that backstory is gradually being unwound in one of the comic teams' newest projects. I trust all will be revealed.) I love how the different comic bookmaking teams create such wildly different comics in term of tone, media, style, maturity, and humor. I have fun doing the voices, esp for the Australian news reporter who pops in now and then.

Love these books. We can't believe we have to wait until the end of November for book 5.

Supa awesome and Supa wholesome!
P.S: also a Supa surprising guest appearance by a beloved someone. Read and find out.
