Award-winning cartoonist who has been at the forefront of today's

Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum. This book explores how Raina developed

into a legendary cartoonist, looks at the artists who influenced

her work, and considers why her art resonates so strongly

with readers of all ages. Rare artwork, an interview, special commentary

from Raina, and more are included!
