Dekko Comics are the wackiest funniest short comic stories you've ever read, with a full cast of crazy comic characters. The stories range from adventurous to ridiculous, but what's particularly special about Dekko is that the stories are actually educational too. They cover school subjects from maths to literacy, and do so by being entertaining first and educational second. These stories are ideal for anyone looking for learning in a fun way, and especially helpful for those who struggle with conventional reading: like dyslexic readers. Reading Dekko will turn your learning into a Saturday activity without you even realizing it. In Issue One Basil and Ernie demonstrate how to recognise and use historical sources, while Piwi the Posh Kiwi's weeklong holiday in France teaches us the days of the week in French. Timbot and Crowball fight off the Timetron robots with their knowledge of time while Wilma the witch with Wurton the wizard use their magic spells to help us practice the rules of spelling. Outlawra's granny gives an (uninvited) first-hand account about the Homefront during World War II - while Outlawra demonstrates her own version of the Blitz! In Dan's body battles he learns about sinuses (yuck! mucus!) while Doctopus and Nurse Skuttlefish work to diagnose a German blowfish. Beechboy Barkley's long legs give us a lesson in measuring and Basil and Ernie teach some fractions, decimals, and percentages while they (try to) share a pizza. Literacy expert Cob the Impossible Blob shows us the parts of speech while the Knight and the Dragon demonstrate figures of speech in "Tales of Words" and Sprocket learns about FORCE - the hard way. Issue one also contains posters about spelling rule exceptions, figures of speech and reading time.
