Great children's picture book. It explores in a simple and honest way topics such as atoms, evolution, biology, cosmology, etc. I bought three copies for the kids of my friends. very cool. http://www.elinkelseyandcompany.com/books

Pony's monthly book update:
Jonathan Franzen - Freedom Hilton Als - The Women Melissa Border - Scarecrone Lydia Davis - Can't and won't Emily Gould - And the Heart says Whatever Richard Yates - Young Hearts Crying Richard Yates - Eleven Kinds of Loliness Jean Rhys - Good Morning, Midnight Jean Rhys - Sleep it Off Lady Barbara Browning - The Correspondence Artist Djuna Barnes - Nightwood Jeff Jackson - Mira Corpora Tao Lin - Shoplifting from American Apparel Due to me losing my job, this month's book update will probably only be 2 or 3 books. Maybe I'll find pdfs of good stuff online... that way I could read just as much AND finally use my kindle-- anyone knows a good source?
