The two spend conversations discussing everything from math to literature with funny insight accessible to readers of all ages. This e-book original collection of "Frazz" strips compiles the most amusing--and most touching moments as the friendship between the unlikely pair develops.

Mallet's work was nominated by the National Cartoonists Society for a Reuben division award for Best Newspaper Comic Strip in 2004, and "Frazz" has won two Wilbur Awards in 2003 and 2005, which honors excellence in communicating values and ethics. Indeed, within "Frazz"'s jokes and antics is the heart of the strip: an illuminative approach to learning, which is fun for kids and inevitable for adults.
