(3) K-3 Between ballet lessons, debate club, and so on, chickadee Andrew has overscheduled himself. (Interestingly, his parents don't appear in this story.) The result? Exhaustion, diluted performance, and confusion ("He danced his way through debate club. He argued his way through karate"). This cautionary tale is tailor-made for terrific visual gags, and Spires doesn't disappoint (e.g., Andrew's face-plant is hilarious).
