Adventures of Huckleberry Finn / Mark Twain 175 p.

In this sequence to Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn takes to the road, actually the Mississippi River to escape from his abusive alcoholic father. Along the way he meets up with Jim, a runaway slave. Miss Watson was going to sell Jim down river away from his wife and family. Jim plans to land in Cairo Illinois, a free state, and work to earn the money to free his family.  As they raft down the river, they scavenge what they can.  When they enter a house floating by they find a dead man shot in the back.  Jim holds Huck back from looking a dead man when he covers the body.  As they miss the Cairo landing, they pass Arkansas where they meet up with the duke and the king, a couple of con artists.  Duke and king work a scam for Jim so that the slavers don't capture him.  They play several town-sized cons before the cons turn on Huck and Jim.  It is adventure after adventure in this classic.

Princess Princess vol. 1 / Mikiyo Tsuda / 168 pgs. / 1st in a Series

Tohru Kouno is a new transfer student to an elite all-boys boarding school.  Since he is very good looking he is chosen to join the most popular clique in school.  The catch is this group cross-dresses for special school events in order to provide an outlet and a touch of femininity for the frustrated, testosterone pumped male students. 

It weird and funny, but I am not sure how long this series can run without the gag getting stale.

Dinkin Dings and the Frightening Things / Guy Bass 125 p.

Dinkin Dings is scared of EVERYTHING! Here are some of the things he was frightened of on May 19: fairgrounds, cold toast, telephones, whispers, and sisters, every sort of thing from Mars, mutant slime, and lists of things that seem to rhyme. New neighbors and their pony-tailed daughter are definitely zombies in disguise. He assembles his army; the ghost, the skeleton, and the monster that live under his bed, to help him get rid of these zombies. Children will relate to the scrapes Dinkin finds himself in like hitting the zombie mom with an egg intended for the pony-tailed zombie.
