Anno's Counting Book

A couple of months ago I was trying to remember a book I had as a child.  I was describing it to my parents, it's got beautiful landscape illustrations, and more and more trees are added with each page.  Today it popped into my head, Anno's Counting Book.  The blanket of snow outside reminded me so much of this page.

Nutcracker #28

Last night I enjoyed my 28th performance of New York City Ballet's The Nutcracker.  Here are some sweet behind the scenes photos from a local news station's profile.

27th Nutcracker

Last night I went to the New York City Ballet's Nutcracker with my mom for the 27th year in a row.  It's one of my favorite holiday traditions.  That and cookies.

Time of Wonder

I often think of one of my favorite childhood books during the summer.  How come adults' books don't have illustrations?
