... with your name on it

Books I purchased recently -- and it should be immediately apparent why.


Simple, charming story about a girl, her stuffed bunny, and her pet roly-poly bug. The similarities to our Mimi are alarming.

And since I couldn't find a book called "Philip" I settled for this:

"No big deal" as she likes to say (she does, really, it's friggin' adorable). She had a little red line across the bridge of her nose but there was no blood.
