An oldie but a goodie July 31, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Witty, wicked, wonderful... The sketches are super, the humor offbeat. The book is so innocent compared with some of today's fare, yet it is sophisticated and dark at the same time.

Terrific book of cartoons, feels much like Charles Addams. Boarding school girls portrayed as little hellions. Given the era in which these were created, it's eye-opening that Searle recognized that girls aren't good and sweet and nice. They can be merciless bullies. Bombs, guns, torture, all well within their grasp. This book is a lot of fun. Hermione Granger would be appalled.
