Break out the Monte Carlos and a steaming cup of joe, frankie fellows – issue 83 is officially on sale in Australia, with many spiffy things inside its covers. A rock ‘n’ roll primer for tiny tots. Inclusive illustrations from Ireland. An eye-opening chat with the one-and-only Kim Deal (!). Six common first date scenarios tried on for size. There’s also a list of pint-sized books made for devouring on a rainy day; the curious history of toilet paper; and a glimpse inside a Mexican shelter that’s home to retired sex workers. Not to mention, our 2018 lineup of wonderful Good Stuff award winners! Read their interviews, memorise their faces – we reckon they’ve got big futures ahead of them.
