Moonhead and the Music Machine (Hardback)

Life's a peach when you've got a moon for a head and your head's in space. You can wander out of the Earth's atmosphere on intergalactic daydreams, drift blissfully across star-speckled skies and fly close to the Sun, like a fireproof Icarus.Snap! Back to reality--having a moon for a head at high school is much more tricky. You get picked on for your -crater-face- and the cool kids kick your head around like a soccer ball!But when the school talent contest is announced, Joey spots an opportunity to impress his classmates and so begins Joey Moonhead's stellar mission to create a music machine that is out of this world!An imaginative and visually poetic take on the stock American high school drama, Moonhead and the Music Machine is a subtle blend between Napoleon Dynamite and Ovid's Metamorphoses. Andrew Rae's graphic novel is life-affirming and powerfully illustrated.Andrew Rae is a London-based illustrator with a worldwide client base through his work in advertising, print, publishing, and animation.
