Eric

EricEric is a foreign exchange student who comes to live with a typical suburban family. Although everyone is delighted with the arrangement, cultural misunderstandings ensure, beginning with Eric's insistence on sleeping in a pantry cupboard rather than a specially prepared guest room. This is a small, Eric sized edition of the story that originally appeared in Tales from Outer Suburbia, edited with some new artwork and layout design.
