Looks like a list of their activist buddies “books” that all came out the last three years. Same magazine at Politics and Prose. Sales are t going well. But NGOs buy the books and “donate” them to the ES library.

Bring back the classics.

So sick of graphic novels and their snarky dialogs and same 100 words looping about.

I always wonder what "classics" people have in mind, when they say that. The Giving Tree, by an author who mostly wrote for Playboy and also wrote A Boy Named Sue? Babar, whose mother is killed by a hunter, and then he marries his cousin, plus it's translated from [i]French[/i] (but the clothes are fabulous)? Finn Family Moomintroll, written by an author who was bi? Amelia Bedelia, a model for the subverting the bourgeoisie? I hope somebody will explain.[/quote]

PP, I'd like to think you are my kids' school librarian.[/quote]
