Happy Thanksgiving
“Got no checkbooks, got no banks.
Still I’d like to express my thanks —
I’ve got the sun in the mornin’
and the moon at night.”
No book is really worth reading
“No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally (and often far more) worth reading at the age of fifty.”
— C.S. Lewis
Is staying within your comfort zone a bad thing?
“Success for me is doing what I want to do, when I want to do it,
where I want to do it — and being paid very well for it.
And to do that, I actually have to stay WITHIN my comfort zone …
because it accommodates the “doing what I want to do” part of my
success equation.”
— Bob Bly

“If fresh, imaginative writing and brilliantly animated pictures, all wonderfully syncopated, are the essence of an original picture book, then Mrs. Lovewright and Purrless Her Cat is indeed a dazzling example. With its dry, wry good humor and sympathetic understanding of human — and animal — misbehavior, the book fairly jumps from your hands for the wonder of it.”
— Maurice Sendak

I wonder.
