The days are shorter than recess and Ariol would like nothing better than to migrate South like a bird. But instead he has to leave his warm, comfy bed to go to school every morning. School's not all bad, there's his best friend Ramono, who always comes up with cool games to play and Petula, the prettiest cow Ariol has ever seen. On the other hand there's also Mr. Ribera, the gym teacher who has no sense of humor and Bizzbilla, who won't leave him alone. If Ariol was Thunder Horse he'd show them all. He'd be the best in gym and always know what to say and no one would be able to tell him what to do. But he's not Thunder Horse—he's just a regular guy like you and me.
This comic is hilarious! It captures small moments of childhood perfectly like when Ariol plays a game of tennis against a wall and provides his own running commentary as if it was a major sports event. The drawings are simple, colorful, charming, and expressive. They satirize childhood with warmth and love. I'd give it to anyone looking for a humorous comic set in a school.
