I adored seeing all of the PEANUTS posts today due to the topic, so I had to add one as well! 🤩
I‘ve never read the books but I know they‘re popular. I wasn‘t necessarily blown away by the art here but it suffices. If you‘re a fan of the books you‘ll likely enjoy this one.
I *did* learn something: Quarin, more traditionally QUAREEN. Pre-Islam & Islamic mythology. A djinn that can either be good or evil but the Quareen is someone‘s companion, guardian, driving you to good or evil behavior.
A middle-aged couple face the horrors of nuclear war in this sweet, but devastating adult picture book. A mis/under informed husband tries to man-splain away his worries while his caring but oblivious wife absent-mindedly goes along with his plans. Feels freshly relevant in our age of misinformation, as this couple could only operate with the information they had available, while so many today operate only with the info they choose to accept.
I cheated and looked at some reviews for this book the other day, and I see a lot of them hating on Gene. I understand, she's definitely a pain and she has a ton of growth to do, but I absolutely adore her. She's not a bad person. She's very driven and single-minded and not a stellar girlfriend, but overall she's a pretty good character. She's funny, adorable, and has a ton of compelling areas to learn from. I'd read a book about her.
In honour of Louis Riel Day in Canada, and Native American Heritage Month in the USA, here‘s an #Indigenous authors extravaganza (plus a slideshow of appliquéd blankets I made):
