(We’re not anywhere near the end of the comic, like today’s might suggest, but it’s a lot easier to put out these lists every 100 comics or so. Thanks to everyone who’s helped make us feel like the comic’s been a success so far. Also, if you catch why each song was chosen to be appropriate for each individual lesson and recitation, give yourself a cookie. Enjoy.)
