WE DOESN’T LOVE SOME STICKERS?
A fun book to look out for called STICKER BOMB 2 published by Laurence King. It’s got over 280 peelable stickers inside. (doesn’t look like they can take water but trapper keeper worthy for sure) – Rick
GREAT READ BY DEREK WALKER @ AD AGE
“Passionate, artistic types don’t know how to “phone it in.” They’ll place too much time and energy into an assignment, trying to make it work. It isn’t in their DNA to settle (or it shouldn’t be).” – Derek Walker/Ad Age

CHARACTER TRIBUTE – SLOTH
He didn’t ask for much. Just a Baby Ruth and a friend. Here’s to Sloth – a character who wasn’t blessed with dreamy eyes, decent teeth or a grasp of the English language, but more than made up for it with a heart the size of One-Eyed Willy’s treasure. Love, BergerHill
