School Days

The cartoons focus on a delightful array of familiar situations and characters, including teachers (from the underappreciated to the overrated), students (from the overachievers to the slackers), and parents (from the demanding to the uninterested). Such New Yorker greats as Charles Barsotti, William Hamilton, Roz Chast, and many others examine education from every perspective with the insightful wit that is the signature of the magazine's cartoons.

Robert Mankoff is the cartoon editor of The New Yorker and a cartoonist in his own right. He is the editor of many collections of New Yorker Cartoons.
