Judy Horacek: Everyone on the bus fell down (not just me)
This fun-filled 50 minutes of cartoons features Judy Horacek's feisty pointy nosed characters and stories about her life as a cartoonist and children's book creator, bumping through the world as best she can. Feminism, social justice and a deep dive into green concerns with our worries and fears about the way we are destroying the planet – all prime material for humour! Plus, lots about the other type of green that’s been important in her life, one that is ovine rather than environmental, from the children’s classic she created with Mem Fox, Where is the Green Sheep?'
Judy has been trying to solve the problems of the world for decades. She acknowledges that it hasn’t worked. Come along to laugh at the crises of the world – it's better than staying at home crying.
Judy can be funny about almost anything
One of Australia’s best cartoonists and should be a worldwide phenomenon. She brightens the day with wit and intelligence.
