6. New Stuff

One of the gifts I got this year was the new season of ‘Wonder Showzen’ It’s a kids show, for adults, with kids in it. So messed up. I adore the first season. As someone who works with children, I find it particularly hilarious. I was really looking forward to the second season. So far it’s actually sicker than the first, if you can believe it. And it comes with this awesome kids story in the DVD.
Being the big comic nerd I am, I usually manage to either squeeze in a visit to The Beguiling or a place in St. Catherines called The Book Depository while I’m visiting the rents. No Beguiling for me this year, but at TBD I managed to pick up some really awesome stuff, all for a total of $40. That’s like 2 graphic novels in comic speak. I think I walked away with a total of 12 books. Awesome! I love The Book Depository. LOVE it. Below are mini reviews of the books I bought.
‘A Frog Thing’, written by Eric Drachman and illustrated by James Muscarello
Frankie wants to fly, but frogs can’t fly. An excellent kids book about the things we can and can’t do. It comes with an audio CD, and the illustrations really make the whole thing worth it. Just beautiful. I especially love the images of Frankie with his flippers on his head.
