Not sure if I'm the target audience for this, but I thought it was so adorable! I am in love with the art style and bright colors!! The story was pretty cute too, I will definitely check out the next one. My daughter (3) and I both enjoyed it. I liked the bio section in the back too!

I picked this up on free comic book day 2016 and am so happy it was free for us to check out, thank you! Nostalgia to my childhood bonus too.

The art is adorable. The story is short and sweet. I think this would be perfect for small children. Not so much for me though ^^'

Sweet and suitable for a bedtime story

[Taylor Cayes · Rating 4 out of 5]

Actually had a lot of great beats to it. More nuanced than you would think and full of role modeling.

My daughter's other big haul from FCBD besides Super Hero High. Gotta say, I think this was better. Sour Grapes. Tea Time Turtle.

This was a sugary sweet, cute 10-minute intermezzo with my morning coffee today.
Love the modern update and the 'can-do' attitude.

I got the Strawberry Shortcake on 2016 Free Comic Book Day. I was a quick and easy read. The story was really cute. I love the characters and art style. A great read.

I had the 1980's or 1990's Strawberry Shortcake video's as a kid and I loved them. They where learning videos and very kid friendly. Now thinking of myown children and being a nanny to two more kids (4&6 now 7) they are still good lessons sprinkled in to a lot of things I consider not so kid friendly to unnecessary. Much like the "relationships" I have seen evolve into other cartoons there is a weirdness between girls and boys that in my opinion shouldn't be there (not so much in this comic but I watched the new cartoon as well, and read some of the new books) I sound so old for someone who is only 21 but last time I checked "kids" in cartoon at least werent interested in dating and the like until after high school... fashion was not a focus for children it was fun... materialism is evident as well... More acceptance of many things is great but these are topics I didn't approach until I was between 10-13 and looking back until I was 18/19 I didn't really grasp them anyways... this is more of a rant than a review but I have a 4 year old who is more worried about makeup and boys and her weight than playing with her dolls 50% of the time and I can say that is largely due to media...
