Thanksgiving Monkey Butler Cheer*
I sez it’s children’s literature related and I sez the heck with it. The Thanksgiving connection is, admittedly, a bit of a stretch. Many many thanks to BoingBoing for the link.
I hope you are all having a delightful Thanksgiving. I know that with my new baby and newer job I’m awfully thankful for a whole mess of things.
Now if you’d like another link, enjoy the antics happening under the hashtag #LiteraryTurducken. As the publisher Doubleday describes it, “The #LiteraryTurducken combines not one, not two, but three classic works into one, in the spirit of the turkey+duck+chicken creole classic.” Favorites that I spotted briefly while looking at it included “The Lion, The Witch, and the War & Peace Like a River”, “Anne of Green Eggs & Ham on Rye”, and naturally, “Into Where the Wild Things Fall Apart.” Fun for all. Big thanks to T.S. Ferguson for the link!
