From We Go To The Gallery, a limited edition artworkby Miriam Elia, who sez:

‘We Go to the Gallery’ is the first in a series of Dung Beetle Learning books designed to make scary subjects approachable for the under 5s. Printed in bold colours and written in a clear and cheerful tone, each book will drag families into the darker recesses of the collective unconscious, for their broader cultural benefit.

All righty then.

          -Do you have “Little Women”? the girl asked.
          -Hmmmm. Occasionally…
