87. The Green Pelican and Other Stories Probably hard to find. (My copy is DELICATE.) A charming weird book of short stories written in an energetic and exceptionally wry voice. Great for early grade school reading. ht @anaisnein9 ! https://twitter.com/anaisnein9/status/1288351860118749186?s=19 …pic.twitter.com/LWUb3C4stl
88. Ox-Cart Man In the days of old, a Bay Colony family worked hard throughout the year, producing handicrafts and living a humble, loving family life Whither went the Ox-Cart Man of yesteryear? What ill wind, from whence, bore on its hateful wings the accursed Masshole?pic.twitter.com/RfmOdszp4R

90. The Original Mother Goose AWESOME. Reasons to get: 1. Art is gorgeous 2. Memetically RICH. These snippets of words wriggle their way into every bit of English. Like reading Shakespeare 3. Great way to establish the rhythm of English 4. My mom told me to read poetry to kidspic.twitter.com/gYpHenQ8Sm
91. Life Story This one had good reviews but I was a little underwhelmed by the art--and I don't think the play gimmick works so well here. But it is a concise summary of the history of the worldpic.twitter.com/dk3rZxqfsg
Loved it!
Sometimes its fun to look back at what was true. Pluto was a planet.
Classic 70s-80s sci fi art on the cover, too—I’ve seen it recently On Here in that context and I was all “that’s the Our Universe cover!” That was reference in our school library—couldn’t check it out (and was somewhat out-of-date by then too).
What is the name for this classic sci-fi aesthetic? With the large space objects/features, somewhat watery color scheme? It sticks out to me immediately.
