Good luck Charlie

The Little Monster 1024


This piece is based on the cartoon series, Good luck Charlie. It’s time for the yearly trip to Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Colorado for the 4 Duncan kids and their mum Amy.  The Duncan family comprises of Dad Bob, mum Amy, siblings Pj, Teddy and Gabe and including Charlie the youngest Duncan family member. The relationship between Bob and his in laws never was strong, and every year he stayed behind when Amy and the kid went to visit the Grandparents. This year Amy is adamant to take Bob with her to her parents’ house by convincing him that her disproving parents might have changed since it had been so long by him to going to their house.

This story worked really well for me as I could see the humour between the characters’s something that’s always present in the television series. Even though it is an emotional scene the author seemed to capture both the humour and emotion really well through this scene. It could have included a little more detail on why Bob and his in laws have such a rocky relationship.
