Hardback. Condition: Good. As all kids know, waking up in the morning is hard to do! So finally here are three lighthearted stories that speak to the plight of the night owl. In the first story, Jake is snoozing so soundly that the whole neighbourhood must band together to wake him up. In the second, 'Sleepyhead' wakes up late and her whole family races to get her ready for school. In the third, three lazy brothers strive to be the laziest one of all. In Wake Up, Sleepyhead!, Levin Kipnis' amusing rhymes are perfectly paired with Noam Weiner's hilariously expressive illustrations.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Two years after he published The Underground Sketchbook in 1964, Tomi Ungerer conceived The Party - a take-down of the super rich, as savage as anything George Grosz or Ralph Steadman put on paper. Each full page or spread is accompanied by a hilariously incongruous caption, lettered in the author's hand, creating an irreconcilable dissonance between image and text. Each image is a masterpiece of hideousness, the book itself a succession of smug, bloated, drooling, lascivious, ostentatious monsters. In The Party, Ungerer's unleashes one of the most caustic moral imaginations of any cartoonist, each slashing ink line dipped in scorn.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. One Clinton, two Bushes, and an Obama were mere warm-ups for a President who is truly worthy of Ann Telnaes' excoriating satirical skills. The election of Donald Trump has inspired the Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist to chronicle the high points (or low points, if there's a difference) of his first six months in office. Written in a sing-songy rhyme and drawn in her beguilingly impeccable ink line, each page is a miniature critique and expose of Trump and his janissaries, poltroons, and dissemblers, illustrating his public policies, his personal defects, his ethical dysfunction, and the consequences of his Presidency on the lives of Americans ? in a format that is cleverly designed to reflect the commander-in-chief 's attention span and mental level.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. This is a treatise on what makes art art, told in graphic novel form. What is "Art"? It's widely accepted that art serves an important function in society. But the concept falls under such an absurdly large umbrella and can manifest in so many different ways. Art can be self indulgent, goofy, serious, altruistic, evil, or expressive, or any number of other things. But how can it truly make lasting, positive change? In Why Art?, acclaimed graphic novelist Eleanor Davis (How To Be Happy) unpacks some of these concepts in ways both critical and positive, in an attempt to illuminate the highest possible potential an artwork might hope to achieve. A work of art unto itself, Davis leavens her exploration with a sense of humor and a thirst for challenging preconceptions of art worth of Magritte, instantly drawing the reader in as a willing accomplice in her quest.…
