Wrongboy's History of Earth

My friend gave me this book last year for my birthday. I just pulled it out again, because I enjoyed it so much. I didn't really know anything about the author because she had gotten this in London. I finally did some research today and he has a website! The author's name is Will Bishop-Stephens and just recently graduated with an MA from the Royal College of Art in 2006. I believe this is his first book but there is a lot of stuff on his website, including some short films. One point of interest for me concerning the book is the fact that tapirs are involved. The tapir is my favorite animal. Besides that, the drawings are great and the book is just down right hilarious. I hope to see more from him :)

I found this little gem on youtube awhile ago. The track is from MC Paul Barman's "Paullelujah" release. Good stuff.
