talking about kids' books with hollsk...

[cimorene]

and canadian children's writer robert munsch came up.  she sent me to his official website and i discovered that there you can listen to all his stories--including two of my favourite kids' books, murmel murmel murmel and jonathan cleaned up... then he heard a sound.  both are hilarious.  the former is about adoption (sez the author).  the second (sez me) involves, brilliantly, a boy whose apartment is a subway station, the vagaries of bureaucracy, and a jar of blackberry jam.
