Happy Father’s Day!

By Matt Gajdoš

When I was young, my Dad would tell me stories about Nyla & Jimmy – a little boy and a little girl who lived in a treehouse and had lots of fun adventures. The story I loved the most was about a great eagle who came to take them on a fantastic journey.

When I started thinking about Nyla & Jimmy again a few days ago I realized that I always imagined Jimmy to be me and Nyla to be my little sister Catherine. So this is my drawing of that story from all those years ago!

Happy Fathers Day, Dad! I love you and thanks for helping me use my imagination!

To help you know this is me in the 80s, I put Ronald Reagan on the eagle too.
