Monsieur Point est collectionneur. Il collectionne les lettres et les mots. Il a une belle collection. Un lundi matin, il découvre que des lettres manquent et que d'autres ont été inversées.

Humour et bonne humeur affluent, dans les rondes, pour rappeler certaines règles de bonne conduite comme "Mets donc les gâteaux de riz au feu, mais pas la maison. Je ne veux pas la voir partir en fumée". 22 titres qui se dégustent comme un délicieux sorbet au thé vert !

In honor of Sputnik 1, 50 years later (on Oct. 4th), I present to you all a nice little gem of a book I got off of ebay about a year ago: Space Alphabet (1964) by Irene Zacks. Pictures by Peter P. Plasencia. It's the entire book. I normally don't do this, but it's just too good not to share it all.

Last week, in an effort to kill some time, Kim and I invented a little game. Basically, it's just Word Association with doodles instead of boring ol' words.
