i know it's probably not so cool to write another post so soon, but the subject is kids books, so i can't resist! i work at borders, so i spend all day looking at books instead of supervizing, which is what i'm supposed to do, and i love kids books. particularly the "picture books" section. if anyone hasn't looked at them yet, check out the work of eric carle, it's beautiful. also, for a very entertaining, well drawn book, check out - ooooh, i can never spell his name - szieska? he illustrated "the true story of the 3 little pigs" and "the stinky cheese man" among others, so just go to the "s's" and look for those books. they are fantastic! and if you can find it, Jill Thompson's Scary Godmother, the original hardcover (it's a comic now) is adorable and the best halloween book. and then there's roald dahl, the genius... my father got married a second time, and he and his french wife had a little girl, colette, five years ago. i thought it would be a real drag, but now that i know her, she's the best! and i shower books on her every chance i get! in french and english, cause she's so clever she can read em both! cause god knows i'll never have one of my own... okay, that's it, really it is... -evan _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
