Gavin Aung Than

Gavin Aung Than is a New York Times best-selling cartoonist.

After working in the corporate graphic design industry for 8 years he quit his unfulfilling job and sold his house to follow his true passion: drawing cartoons. His work includes Zen Pencils, a web-comic which adapts inspirational quotes into comics that was named one of PCMag’s best 100 websites of 2013, and Super Sidekicks, a middle grade graphic novel series.

Baa Baa Black Belt is his debut picture book and combines Gavin’s two lifelong obsessions of martial arts and drawing silly pictures. He lives in Perth, Western Australia.

BAA BAA BLACK BELT

Hi! Welcome to my farm. It’s where I do my training. I practice martial arts when it’s sunny, cold, or raining! My name is very famous. Do you know how it’s spelt?

Here, let me remind you: they call me ... BAA BAA BLACK BELT!

WAKE UP SHEEPY HEAD!

(BAA BAA BLACK BELT #2)

“Win the morning, win the day,” that’s what I always say. Join me, BAA BAA BLACK BELT, as I use my martial arts skills to help the lazy farm animals to rise and shine!
