This is the life of Teena Keene -- almost 11 years old, a fifth grader and a good student. She’s an avid inline skater and not quite ready to give up her dolls. But makeup and boys, particularly Gordo Brandt, are beginning to vie for her attention. Teena teeters between child and budding teen, and enjoys being a little of both. Right now, "tweens" (9- to 12-year-olds) are a huge audience -- and this is the just the comic strip for them! According to Entrepreneur magazine, "Tween purchasing dollars number in the billions – and that’s before tacking on the additional billions’ worth of influence these kids exercise over household expenditures."
