In "What's Going On Here?", Joe Brown and Little Tony attempt to bridge their language gap with a simple trip to the market—only to end up with a comically oversized bag of cherries when Tony misunderstands "half a pound" as a request for currency, not weight. Written by the team behind the series and illustrated with warm, expressive detail, this charming 2.25-page tale captures the humor and heart of two very different friends trying to connect.

In "When Somebody Loves You," Connie grapples with doubt when her fiancé’s priorities seem to lie more with her Olympic dreams than their future together—especially after she stumbles upon a note meant for another woman and finds him in her arms.
