Monkey Stories #1: Glue! Glue! Glue!

This is the first Monkey Stories I ever did. Normally the pages are stapled together like a comic book, but my Dad took the staples out to scan the pages.

This story is about Monkey in the craft room working with glue! His Mom yells to him from the living room asking him if he's making a mess, and as you can see, he fibs. Monkey cuts shapes from construction paper and glues them to the wall, he's proud of his work, but, all his Mom sees is a BIG mess! Other stories get more complicated, but I like this one because it shows that Monkey is like all of us in many ways.

I'll post again soon.

Welcome to my MONKEYSTORIESGIRL blog!

Welcome to my MONKEYSTORIESGIRL blog! Back in June I went to the park with my Mom and brother and created Zines with the Art Bikers (check them out here) and ever since then I've been drawing and writing my own comic strip. It's called Monkey Stories and I hope to put then all on this blog for you to read. I have a lot of fun drawing and writing Monkey Stories so I hope you have fun reading them.

To start my blog off I drew and wrote a creation myth, something from the world of Monkey himself (he's the main character in Monkey Stories) . What's a creation myth? Please go to Wikipedia and find out. There are lots of different kinds of creation myths. I hope you like this one:
I know it might be hard to read the scan of the story so just click on the image and it will open up bigger--I'll post again soon.
