Experience every emotion and endure life's ups and downs with this series of short comics. Featuring Desmond Reed's unique style of fluid, cartoony lines, these everyday vignettes strike a variety of emotional chords as they tell the story of the fictional band the Cola Pop Creemees. This standalone volume follows the adventures of the wacky personalities behind the group, letting us in on their candid thoughts and outsized reactions to experiences ranging from the chaos of the grocery store to memories of heartbreak at religious summer camp to a bona fide zombie apocalypse. Their antics will make you laugh as you reflect on life's difficult moments and emotions. As one character muses, "Am I a strong person for doing things while feeling sad, or am I a weak person for feeling sad to begin with?" Dramedy has never looked so squiggly . . . or relatable. Perfect for fans of BoJack Horseman, this collection serves both as an entry point to the popular web comic and as a continuation of its familiar characters and scenarios. Includes "Memories," winner of a 2022 MICE Mini-Grant.
