About This Story
The Upside-Down Me is a 62 page comic starring a little boy, Zip, his sister, Elizabeth (”we call her Li’l Bit”), a friend of theirs, Officer John, and the semi-mysterious Upside-Down Me.
Originally envisioned as a full-length printed comic book, it has been adapted for the Web and is presented here as a twice-weekly comic strip, posting on Thursdays and Sundays.
This book is dedicated to my Grandmother, Violet, and my son, Clark.

Thanks, Joel. I’m glad you enjoyed the story and that you were able to share it with your kids. I hope they enjoyed it as well.
Being a parent myself (my son is almost four), I’ve discovered that it’s very important to find books that I enjoy when reading with my boy. He’s got a lot of books that he likes that I think are just awful, which makes it kind of a chore when reading those with him. Luckily, there is a lot of good stuff that we both like and can both enjoy, which is good because those get read over and over and over and over.

Sisters are honest. When it suits them, of course.
Being busted with sheep in the room is a biggie.
No sister would let that pass without comment…

Ha! I was wondering when someone would bring that one up. Having counting sheep in the room is like taking baths with your brothers and sisters — It’s completely acceptable, if not great fun, when you’re young but probably not something you’d want to continue with as you get older.
And you’re right, sisters are honest when it suits them… BRUTALLY honest.
