Mom: I've got the cure for your summer doldrums! Camp Blisshaven starts next week! Alice: Really? Oh, boy! What do we do at camp? Woodland lore? Fishing? Tracking wildlife? Identifying toxic plants? Catching bears? That'd be so great! Mom: Well, I think you visit the nature center. Unless it's burned down again... Alice: Did you know they've got fish-slapping bears? I hope we catch one of those!

Why was Miss Bliss all emotional about the end of school if she’s going to see the kids a week later? Oh the melodrama!

Add Timmy Fretwork and his banjo, and you’ve got “Deliverance: The Preschool Years”…

Great expectations often lead to disappointing results. My vivid imagination as a kid was far more exciting then experiencing the reality of a situation.

Alice won’t make it past the mosquitos…

I wonder if Alice will ever age in this comic and be in preschool forever?

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and guess that Dill’s brothers had something to do with that nature center fire…
