A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school.
Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair.
The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime"
The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"
A cartoon reminder that tomorrow is World Book Day (In the UK anyway). Originally for the @theguardian.com

A comic book box of a monkey holding a large pile of colourful balloons that have βbuzz!β printed next to them. The monkey is saying: βIβve filled 30 balloons with angry bees! Wanna help me chuck them around?β

A cracking example of Godwinβs Law. I told my teen that I studied for an hour every night after school so it was just possible that he could do so too.
He told me, very seriously: βMum, the NAZIS were possible, it didnβt mean it was a good thing.β

Itβs me on #wakeuptomoney tomo. Weβll talk tariffs, jobs, markets and more. But since Iβve spent the weekend admiring the daffodils I bought for Β£1, I was also wondering - whatβs the cheapest thing that brings you joy? What tiny expense brings a much larger happiness
