in France, one children’s book is causing a political stir with its depictions of adults in the altogether called ‘Tous à Poil’, which translates at ‘All In The Buff’.
The book has comical drawings of ordinary people – policemen, bakers, and teachers – taking off their clothes with the aim of teaching small children not to be obsessed with perfect bodies.

This weekend’s Observer Tech Monthly featured “The Best of British Startups” as represented outside of London in places like Brighton, Edinburgh, Bristol & Bath and Belfast (these four given double-page spreads); also Newcastle and Manchester (both full-page spreads); with other cities summarised on a final page listing.
It struck me how few of these companies are focused on children’s entertainment or education, an exception being Brighton-based Lighthouse Learning, co-directed by Danielle Barnetche and Alex McGregor.
This company’s tagline is “Where learning is delightful” and they have so far created two well-received apps – Dragon Shapes: Geometry Challenge and Shape Arts: Geometry Creations.
