I Wonder What I'm Thinking About?

by Moose Allain

I Wonder What I’m Thinking About brings artist and illustrator Moose Allain’s best creations together in one place, in a colorful, amusing and sometimes confusing collector’s item. Moose draws cartoons, comic strips, book illustrations, doodles, diagrams, maps and guides. He uses Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Vine and Photoshop. He makes photographs, captions, logos, web graphics, animations and films. He paints and he draws and he doodles. He writes short stories, puns, riddles, essays, to-do lists and to-don’t lists. He draws ducks, bees, Vikings, eggs, sheep, umbrellas and flowers. If you’ve ever wondered what he’s thinking about… this is it. This book is filled to the brim with the best of his work, and at the heart of it Moose tries to work out just what it is that unites his amalgam of unique, funny and distinctly varied work.

Glorious salad of pictures, stories and... well, tweets.
Like "The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage", this book is totally winning in the books-as-physical-objects stakes: it has a nice, woven hard cover and thick, creamy pages. It smells nice and the print quality is delicious, with little surprises hidden in unexpected corners.
I didn't read every word, just the bits I felt like reading, and I didn't feel like the book was silently judging me for my selectivity. It's back on its shelf now but it might come out again from time to time.

Moose Allain is such a creative, and it was a treat to get a peak into his mind.

I am not sure Kindle was the best way to read the book though.

A book full of work by one of my favourite cartoonists - what's not to love?
