Growing up isn't always fun in real life, but in the world of
"FoxTrot," it's always worth a laugh. Between overblown science
experiments, babysitting jobs from hell, and sibling rivalry honed
to an art form, the Fox household reverberates the sounds of a
far-out, yet familiar, family life.
One of "FoxTrot"'s great appeals is its understanding of the
pains and pleasures of youth. The Fox kids--little brother Jason,
the mischievous genius; sister Paige, the boy-crazy shopping
fanatic; and big brother Peter, a sports fan with aspirations to be
a sports star--interact naturally, which is to say loudly and
vigorously. In addition, creator Bill Amend uses many real-life
situations and dilemmas modern kids face to frame his stories.
"It's a tricky balance," says the artist. "On one hand I have this
wonderful opportunity to present good role models to younger
readers, but at the same time I want to be funny." And he succeeds.
In "At Least This Place Sells T-Shirts," parents Andy and Roger
continue to preside over the unpredictable household antics of the
Fox family.
