A Nice little nod from the National Library of Australia

Recognise this lovable mischief-maker? Ginger Meggs first appeared in a newspaper comic strip in 1921.

His life revolves around avoiding household chores, winning the heart of fellow redhead Minnie Peters, avoiding his nemesis, arch-bully Tiger Kelly, as well as the occasional billy cart ride. He still appears daily in 120 newspapers around the world. You can find Ginger-along with loads of other beloved Aussie characters-in our book 'Story Time Stars: Favourite Characters from Australian Picture Books'. #NLAPublishing
