Judy Horacek

All Australians, young and old, recognise Judy Horacek's cartoons. Where Is the Green Sheep? has become a children's classic. And her more adult cartoons, with strong, sassy female characters, appear on fridge magnets, tea towels, and greeting cards all over the world.

If You Can't Stand the Heat is Judy's seventh cartoon collection, to be published by Scribe in October 2010.

Judy Horacek's beautiful and brilliantly funny observations are modern icons perfectly distilling the absurdities, foibles and the dilemmas of contemporary life. Ranging from the minutiae of daily living to larger scale global and environmental issues, her cartoons celebrate human creativity and resilience and are permeated with a concern for justice and a desire for laughter.

If You Can't Stand the Heat is a wonderful phantasmagoria of ancient fairy tales made new, of penguins, pirates and angels. A scintillating new collection from one of Australia's most loved cartoonists.
