Les enfants Ă©coutent Charlie et la Chocolaterie racontĂ© par Claude Villers. Quelle voix
 Par contre l’accent mi-tarnais mi- marseillais de Grand-PĂšre Joe me laisse perplexe.

My cartoon for Guardian Books’ autumn reading special.

A beautiful, smiling pile of new books labelled "New Books for Autumn" innocently attracts the attentions of a young man. Beside him, his pile of books (labelled "Unfinished Summer Reading") notices this and scowls at him.

The image is a cartoon pastiche of the ‘distracted boyfriend’ meme.

A Mayan scribe (right) and his instructor (left) – the dots and lines between them form an early speech-bubble, and it's thought the glyphs refer to sloppy work. So here we have a 1,500yo cartoon of a writer getting a bollocking from his boss! #Writing#AncientScripts#History

A Mayan vase, thought to be from 500-900 CE. It is mostly light brown, with darker brown strips at the top and bottom. The middle of the image shows a cartoon-like charcoal-coloured line-drawing of two kneeling men (a student scribe on the right, and his instructor on the left) facing each other over what we can assume to be some writing. The instructor looks narked, and the scribe looks a bit dismayed!
