It’s Yaytime! by Dave Roman

A goldfish is in a swimming pool with a diving board. It says Goldfish don't belong in the pool.

Why else don’t goldfish belong in pools?

Nutty Conversations by Ruthie Lafond

An almond is looking down and not jumping rope. A macadamia nut is jumping rope next to the almond. Almond says it won't go. The macadamia says you have to make it go. How? asks the almond. The macadamia nut jumps over the red rope and says jump. The macadamia nut is jumping rope. The almond starts jumping rope too and the macadamia nut smiles and says You got it.

What advice do you have for someone learning how to jump rope?

Peter Cadaver by Stan Yan

Patty Cadaver asks her tapeworm why they look sad. Terry the tapeworm says my kids will be going off to new homes. Terry the tapeworm lives in Patty's cheek. Patty says that that no one came to adopt them. Where did they go. Terry says they probably went to a better place. Like the salad they saw on the counter.

Have you ever lost a pet?

Mark & Zark by Dan Moynihan

Mark, a purple haired boy in a red shirt is on the soccer field. The ball comes his way. He's got it. He sees the goal, it's empty. He tells himself he's got this. People are screaming his name! He kicks the ball in. Goal! A kid runs up to him and tells him he scored on his own goal.

Has this ever happened to you?

Artist Spotlight:

My name is Jarrett Lerner, and my comic strip's title is Food City.

What was your favorite comic, video, or cartoon character growing up?

I loved Calvin & Hobbes, and also Garfield. I was also in Peanuts -- but I would eagerly run and grab the newspaper every Sunday morning to read the new Calvin & Hobbes and Garfields before anyone else in my family could snatch the funny pages. I was also growing up in what I think was a Golden Age for Nickelodeon cartoons. The Ren & Stimpy Show, Rocko's Modern Life, Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, Doug, the Rugrats, Hey Arnold!, the Angry Beavers -- all that stuff was coming out when I was a kid, and I was head over heels for it all.

What is your favorite thing to draw?

I love anthropomorphizing everyday objects. In other words, I like putting human features (faces and arms and legs) on things that don't have them. Like food. And coffee cups. And shoes and hats.

What art tools do you use to make your comics?

I often just use old-fashioned composition books as my notebooks and sketchbooks. But when I've got something ready to finalize, I use an iPad, the Apple Pencil (second generation), and an app called Procreate.

Where can readers find more of your books, comics, or stuff that you make or do?

Readers can find my books anywhere books are sold! In addition to those, I've got tons of fun, free stuff (activities, comics, art, and even a whole novel) at my website (jarrettlerner.com) and on my YouTube channel (just search my name and you'll find me). I'm also on both Twitter and Instagram at @Jarrett_Lerner.


If you are a young creator interested in making comics and developing your characters and drawing skills this summer, check out Jarrett’s Creator Club (a 5-week online course).

Jarrett has a new Nat the Cat out this week! Congratulations, Jarrett!

That’s it!

Until next week, stay silly!

Jen & Mika
