Two panel comic. Panel 1: girl rifling through her purse. Says to her boyfriend, “babe, can you hold my keys?” He replies, “sure.” Panel 2: he stares in disbelief at the “keys” placed in his hand, a single car key and approximately six key chain toys and charms overflowing in his open palm.

Ghost in the Shell meets tradition: the Tachikoma robot is reimagined as Nabeshima-yaki, a 350-year-old Japanese porcelain craft from Saga Prefecture, created by the porcelain brand YOYOYO. Nabeshima-yaki often features traditional motifs like flowers, waves, or geometric patterns.

An intergalactic postman, aged nine, battles Space Vikings Postman Planet by Ben Davis is fun, silly and precisely the kind of book that will get a six-year-old reading

url-shortener.me/74IP “It’s fun, silly and, in this National Year of Reading, precisely the kind of gateway entertainment that will show a six-year-old that books can give you a good time.”

Not my words, Carol. The words of the Times, who have named Postman Planet their CHILDREN’S BOOK OF THE WEEK

The new book has arrived! 😍
