Wordless strip sequences depict a series of incidents in the everyday life of a small boy. Mike, and his ginger cat, Spike. Though the artist is fifteen, her unsophisticated style resembles that of a 7-year-old and this book is not unlike many I've seen children of that age make for their younger classmates and could well inspire others to do it themselves.
