Ooh ooh audience participation! I have a couple recommendations - I picked up “Picturebook Makers” by Sam McCullen last week, great collection of contemporary illustrators: https://www.booktopia.com.au/picturebook-makers-sam-mccullen/book/9781739979201.html

My kids are getting too old to keep up now, but the Science Comics imprint by McMillan are brilliant: https://us.macmillan.com/series/sciencecomics

And tangentially related, your frequent nods to Disney masters remind me of one of my favourite blogs by Disney storyboard artist Mark Kennedy (Rapunzel), sadly derelict for some time now but still an incredible source of professional insight and inspiration leading all the way back to the golden age of cinema and animation: https://sevencamels.blogspot.com

Hope next week is better for you!

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your comment! I discovered "Picturebook Makers" just the other day. I am keen to order a copy and have loved the blog articles that I have seen so far.

Those Science Comics look like top quality books!

Thanks for the link to the blog- Tangled is one of my favourite Disney movies. I have bookmarked the blog to explore later. Thanks again for sharing.

Paul
