It's always fun to read Miao comics online and now in its book forms with additional content that may not necessarily fit the standalone-ish nature of web comics. Much like the first book, Miao aka Jian Goh uses a few pages to allude to some personal stories about growing up that is both a little uncomfortable yet relateable.
But most of the book involve the types of hijinks that cats, eeer, kids get into when they are growing up. While this might be the recollection of Miao and his group of friends, but it's a also childhood shared by many kids growing up in Kuching.
Random trivia: Miao is a cat but reflection on mirrors is a human.
With a cast of characters aka friends all of us hopefully had growing up, part of the fun is the colloquial Kuching lingo. Ling Ling screaming “MAIKU!” at Star Cineplex is one of my favourite scenes in the book. Any time Ling Ling is freaking out at the boys is my favourite scene actually.
PS - Still curious about Weefu's invisible friend.
