Plugged In: The Everyday Adventures of Thomas and his BFF, Vinton
Thomas, the hero of the new Plugged In comic strip, is a typical fun-loving boy who navigates the ups and downs of middle school with a sense of adventure – and a hearing loss. Oticon Pediatrics is bringing Thomas and his humorous antics to children with hearing loss through an exclusive arrangement with Plugged In’s creator, cartoonist and toy designer Pete McEachen. “Thomas is a regular guy who experiences many funny, embarrassing and heart-warming adventures that kids of all ages will identify with,” says Maureen Doty, AuD, Product and Marketing Manager of Oticon Pediatrics. “For young people with hearing loss, Thomas has an added appeal. He allows them to laugh with him at the little mis-steps or awkward moments that are bound to occur in an active, busy life when you have a hearing loss.”
