Western cartoons always have boys as protagonists because the execs thinks nobody likes girls. They just have the opposite opinion is all. Mainly the character ages are because they're targeted to readers of the same age, but there's definitely impure reasons for it too.

All these covers have pretty different artstyles, it feels kind of random and the art isn't great either. Not sure if it's meant to be a parodying popular series or what.

Mostly they look like boys' comics, "Statistics for Nurses" feels like website clip art, and "Surveying" looks like an older girls' comic or book cover for a Western novel.
