The Computer Teacher from the Black Lagoon

Mike Thaler, once again, has Hubie all in a tither because ” I have to take a computer class this year.” Hubie’s imagination runs wild over over all the computer terms he’s heard: cursor, bites, lock & keypad, boots, monitors, pixels, ram, search engines, computer crashes, The Hacker & The BLOG,  and virus to name a few. “It all sounds very dangerous to me.”  Reality sets in on the last five pages as Hubie begins his computer class with his wonderfully friendly/helpful teacher Miss Pluggins.

I especially loved Jared Lee’s illustration of Hubie in a STAR WARS scene to accompany Thaler’s text “… or fly into hyperlink and hang out at a space bar.”
