Synopsis
Cedric is an eight-year-old boy who is desperately in love with Chen but too shy to let her know. Between school, rowdy friends, nosy parents and an insufferable cousin, little Cedric has a lot to deal with. Thankfully, his grandpa is always there to help, no matter how much mischief Cedric makes
Review
I Really enjoyed these mini-delights.. Each of these stories are extremely funny and really well paced. The artwork is spot on, and the dynamics between the family is so well observed (my favourite character has to be the Grandfather!). In some ways Cedric is a cross between Calvin & Hobbes and Dennis The Menace and manages to carve a niche for himself as he seems to mean well... sometimes, at least. It's also interesting as the other characters have foibles all of their own as well, they don't just act as foils in Cedric's story -as Dennis's family does.
I can't imagine anyone disliking these - they would appeal to anyone who loves Calvin & Hobbes; Dennis The Menace and also Peanuts, I would say.
