Ozy and Millie
Ozy and Millie | Dana Simpson
14 posts | 10 read | 4 to read
Meet Ozy and Millie, two middle-grade students in Seattle who also happen to be foxes. This debut comic from Phoebe and Her Unicorn creator Dana Simpson centers around these two best friends as they take on the everyday challenges all middle-graders facebullies, tests, and the dread of going back to school after a surprise snow day. Millie is a mischievous and inquisitive 10-year-old with a talent for evading homework, a habit of questioning authority, and a knack for inventing bizarre jump rope rhymes. Ozy is her calm, thoughtful counterpart, whose adoptive father, a red dragon named Llewellyn, is full of odd stories and ancient wisdom. Also featured are Felicia, a sheep at the head of the cool clique, and Avery, a hapless raccoon who desperately wants to be popular. Together they offer charming and fun stories while also allowing Simpsons sweetly philosophical humor to shine through. Evocative, funny, and gently philosophical, Ozy and MIllie will delight young readers with tales of friendship and school-age fun, while transporting older fans back to the honesty, openness and wonder of childhood.

This was just too sophomoric for me. Not bad, but much more suited from younger readers.

It‘s also a bit dated, by author‘s own admission. Ozy & Millie is her juvenilia and dating from the early & mid-90s.

Millie reads the dictionary, then has nightmares about all the A words. 😂 #aCharactersReading

I expected this to be a graphic novel and was surprised that it was a compilation of webcomics. Like any comic in strip form, it was rather hit or miss. I chuckled aloud at a couple, but overall I thought this was just okay.

This isn‘t from the books. But it is from the series.

4⭐️ Before Phoebe and her Unicorn there was Ozy and Millie. This was the decade long webcomic that taught Dana Simpson, how to be a great comic strip writer. This book collects about 10 years of her favorite strips about two precocious foxes. You can see Dana‘s wit shining though. Its really enjoyable for Dana newbies and Phoebe lovers alike.

I hadn't realized that the author of the adorable Phoebe and Her Unicorn books is the same person who did Ozy and Millie and I Drew This, webcomics I read regularly back in the day. I was disappointed that these weren't new strips because I really wanted the further adventures of Ozy and Millie. But it was fun to read these and it's been so long that they were almost like new again. And there's some funny stuff here. #ARC from #NetGalley

saresmoore My daughters (7 & 9) are massive Phoebe fans, so I‘m looking forward to getting this one! 6y

I remember loving this as a webcomic back in the day. Glad to see it given new life, though I'm not completely sure it holds up. But I'm still enjoying the trip down nostalgia lane. #arc
