Description

The comic features two characters conversing in a simplistic illustrative style.

Panel 1:

• Background: A bright yellow banner with the text "NEW CHILDREN'S BOOKS!"
• Foreground: A book cover titled "THE BOY WHO ONLY ATE CANDY!" is visible.

Panel 2:

• Character 1 (a child with curly hair): "CAN'T I JUST HAVE VEGE-"
• Character 2 (an adult with red hair, looking stern): "ONLY CANDY! BECAUSE YOU'RE HAPPY!"

The dialogue conveys a humorous exchange about dietary preferences, emphasizing a playful but exaggerated stance on candy versus vegetables.
