Published in aid of two children's charities, the Russell Project and the Monroe Foundation, this book contains the pictures of 20 modern families, each with an accompanying text by a different writer. Some of the best-known modern comic artists have created a completely new pack of cards for happy families, including the Reverend Seemly, the vicar, and family, by Posy Simmonds; Mr Fax, the account executive, and family, by Matt; and Mr Cod, the comedian, and family, by William Rushton. Other artists include Nicholas Garland, Barry Fantini, Trog, Martin Honeysett, Quentin Blake, Sue Macartney-Snape, Thelwell, and Fluck and Law.
