PART TWO OF LITTLE STAR COVER GALLERY...

Well, bought 'em, so gotta use 'em.  I don't really recall any covers

past #s 1-3 (and maybe one or two others), so I'm now wondering if I

bought only the first  three issues (seen in part one) because of the free

gifts and then gave up on it.  I had a paper round at the time and only

spotted the comic when it first came out because I was in the news-

agent's early in the mornings collecting my papers for delivery.

As LITTLE STAR was a nursery comic, it really fell outside my

interest as a 13 year-old, but the lure of a new comic with free gifts

was always hard to resist for me.  I'd even bought the first and early

issues of SHOOT, SCORCHER, and SCORE - and I had absolutely

zero interest in football.  Having said that, there was some nice art

in Little Star, by the likes of TOM KERR and BILL RITCHIE.

So let's take a look at another five covers that perfectly capture

the wonder and innocence of youth.  If only such qualities stayed

with as as we grow up, the world would be a much better place.
