My mother dropped off a box of books that I used to read as a child.
"Aw," I thought. "Snow White."
I started to read it to Junior. He hasn't been exposed to Disney yet, so he has no idea his gender is responsible for awakening/rescuing/enabling helpless waif princesses. (Gawd, he's so behind.) Snow White was a great place to start.
Until...
Seems so fitting.

And shen did your mother read that to you???
Finding little nuggets like that is always entertaining! But not nearly as fun as your new masthead/header...digging the 'tadpole on board' sticker more than is appropriate for whatever reason.
Masthead?! Is that even the name of that thingamabob? Its been a LONG day and now that is making my brains ache...fuck it.
I dig your new title picture!
And why on earth are the words printed right on the crease of the pages? What were they thinking in the 1970s?
Good to see you so dedicated to Jr's education!
Ahhhhh....the good ol' days when books were edited by an actual person rather than a computer system! That is priceless.
We don't really do Disney with my tot either, unless is old school. He has seen the movies Aristocats and 101 Dalmations. Most people think I am horrible for keeping it from him.
Best,
Tina
Yep, that sounds about right. My mom hated reading me that stuff when I was a kid, too.
Typos can be sooooo entertaining for so many reasons.
Excellent quality control, there. At least it had an 'e'?
That totally made me laugh.
Great typo :) Editors must have caught it, laughed and let it go!
