Set in a working-class neighborhood, these comic strips follow a loose cast of children as they make their way through school, home and the small cruelties and comforts of everyday life. The collection gathers early episodes of the strip, with scenes that move from playground squabbles to quiet moments indoors. Its humor is sharp and often bruising, and the children's view of the adults around them gives the book its edge. It is a vivid, raw and funny look at growing up.
