Mo Willems

Cartoonist, children's book illustrator and author Mo Willems is turning his hand to radio cartooning.

Yeah, he knows, he knows — people can't see the cartoons on the radio. Nontheless, he and Michele Norris are giving it a go on All Things Considered. Willems will describe the cartoon, and Norris will take a stab at the punch line.

And that's where you come in: Below are four Mo Willems cartoons. He's already captioned them — quite humorously, we might add — but we've hidden his captions to give you a shot at out-captioning the six-time Emmy winner. (Besides being known for his Knuffle Bunny and "Pigeon" series books, Willems also wrote for Sesame Street.)

Just use the link provided to send us your caption, and make sure to include the number of the drawing you're captioning. Michele and Mo may read some of the funniest captions on the air. See the first of the batch here.
