Amanda Blake Soule: The Creative Family: How to Encourage Imagination and Nurture Family Connections
Miroslav Sasek : This is New York
Wonderful illustrations and colors and so much nostalgia and heart.
Paul Auster: The Brooklyn Follies
I got it passed on from CS and I enjoy recognizing all the Park Slope joints in this book.
Madeleine Albright: Mighty and almighty
Because I want to read something political, and something written by a woman who's a democrat definitely makes it easier to keep up my interest when kids and life easily distract.
Caps for Sale: A Tale of a Peddler, Some Monkeys and Their Monkey Business
A book that Randolphina (Leo) got from Becca when he wasn't even "the size of a period mark"... Ezra loves it, and I find great inspiration in the color scheme and the illustrations. Hopefully I can use it soon for some kind of project...
The Bilingual Family
This one speaks for itself... Hope we're going to sort it all out eventually.
Suze Orman: The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous & Broke
Despite the flashy cover and 80's look of the author, it's a great book for learning how to get money savvy. Wish I found it earlier!
Siri Hustvedt: The Enchantment of Lily Dahl : A Novel
Because I loved her latest book "What I loved". It made my feelings go berserk. And because she's an interesting and inspiring woman, living in my old neighborhood Park Slope.

This tiger is just for testing my newly discovered option to upload pictures from my Flickr account to the blog. Don't know how useful it's going to be, but as it's a lot quicker to upload pictures to Flickr that to Typepad, it might be a good thing.

after viewing it - not so happy with that black frame and the fact that the picture gets cropped. maybe there's a way to fix that too. we'll see.
