"If you grew up in Australia any time between the 1960s and the late 1990s,
chances are you knew a little man from the Moon with a pencil for a nose. His
name was Mr Squiggle. Every week he would float down to Earth in his rocket to
turn random scribbles into magical drawings.
Mr Squiggle was a ritual for Australian kids. He was a mix of creativity,
patience and whimsy that made him one of television’s most unlikely treasures.
Now, more than six decades since his debut, Mr Squiggle is back in the
spotlight.
The National Museum of Australia’s
Mr Squiggle and Friends: The Creative World
of Norman Hetherington is a heartwarming, family-friendly exhibition that pays
tribute to one of Australia’s most beloved children’s television icons."
