Bad Pets are back this month

Every now and then, writer Nigel Aucterlounie and me produce a Bad Pets strip for D.C. Thomson's Animal Planet magazine. It's used in rotation with other strips so it doesn't appear very often but there's one in the current issue, out today.

The magazine was recently retitled, and Animal Planet is now Animal Planet Kids, with a brighter, more eye-catching logo. It's a fantastic magazine dedicated to featuring articles about animals and the environment, educating readers in a fun and entertaining way. I'm always pleased to be a contributor to such a worthwhile venture. 

If you have children, or you just want to read a fun mag about the topic for yourselves, Animal Planet Kids No.21 is in newsagents and supermarkets now. Respecting the environment, the magazine is never bagged in plastic and never has plastic gifts. This issue comes in a paper packet and as well as the usual 52 page magazine, includes a poster/board game, stickers, and "2 surprise" gifts. (I got a packet of Viola Seeds and a pack of cards).

Yes, it just proves it can be done. Admittedly it costs the publisher more to produce their own paper/card gifts than it does to buy in a bunch of plastic toys but the quality is so much better.
