Barbara Throws a Wobbler

Author and illustrator: Nadia Shireen

Barbara’s mood becomes so all-encompassing that she throws a wobbler which has a life of its own, looming over her head like a giant gloom! Eventually, by accepting the wobbler, she overcomes the worst of her feelings. The emotional honesty and visual realisation of Barbara’s wobbler is funny and accomplished.
