Try Some Funny Reading- Comic Strips!

Reading Response for the Week of March 28-April 1 This week, we enjoyed going to Kellam High School to watch a musical entitled, “Annie” which was based on a comic strip written by Harold Gray. The comic strip was called “Little Orphan Annie” and it ran in newspapers for many years. It wasn’t until many years later that the musical, “Annie,” was written and performed. Comic strips are a fun way to enjoy reading. What are some of your favorites, and why do you like them?

  1. I like the Family Circus because the kids in the cartoon always ask funny questions about life. They usually mispronounce some word and that’s what makes me laugh!

  2. I like the peanuts comic strip. I especially like them when Snoopy or Lucy (Lucy with Charlie Brown is really fuuny) are in them. I like it when Snoopy is in them 'cause I like the he talks(mostly I like it when it's like this,"?!?".) I like it when Lucy is in it with Charlie Brown 'cause I like how when Charlie Brown makes Lucy mad, she shakes her fist at him. It makes me crack-up.

  10. I like Non Sequitur because usually the main character has a problem to solve. When they try to solve the problem, they cause another problem. For example, this week a man was stuck on an island with a palm tree. There was another island close by with his boat on it. He couldn't swim there because there were sharks in the water. So he had an idea to cut down the tree and make a bridge. The only problem was, when he chopped the tree down it fell on his boat and smashed it to pieces! He stood there looking at the boat thinking, "Oh, come on!" I think he must be having a bad day!

  31. Oops I made a mistake. I read the blog assignment so fast that I though it said to write about my favorite part of Annie. I actually don't read comic strips, but I like Peanuts. I think it's funny when Lucy would always pull the football away before Charlie Brown would kick it. Then he ends up falling on his back.
