Eight wordless eight-frame strips, featuring resourceful, undaunted little Alex--who gets ""in over his head"" when he tries to bandage a leaking pipe, reacts creatively to a chipped-piaster disaster when trying to hang a picture, is caught red-handed when investigating a lobster-filled grocery bag, and generally triumphs over such familiar domestic predicaments as a fly that won't be swatted, a tennis ball in his soup, over-rising dough, and an upside-down TV picture. Fresh, funny, and inventive.
