A great kids book list for your small and mighty!
An exhibit by the Foundling Museum - and a powerfully sad subject
“Don’t talk to me about treaties and rights! When did I ever keep a treaty when it suited me to break it?“
I just stumbled on this while looking for something, but I love the detail from the Library of Congress! And the fish necklace. And the tuna that look like another pair of legs.
A different year. You’ll have to click through and zoom in, she’s a little hard stacked on the right of the screen, these long files.
Becky was home for two days, and our other sisters couldn’t make it, and we missed them very much. Mom has also been gone to a wedding for much of these holidays, and so, it has been a lot of dad and myself around. Every year is different, and I suppose there are less comics when there are less people. But there is the same amount of love.
And I moved home. It’s been 14 years of waving goodbye in a car that’s driving away. We’ll see if it sticks.
Happy New Year to you and yours, with love, from the Beatons.
I usually get on a plane at the end of the holiday comics
mom has actually been gone to Ontario for a wedding since Christmas, so you see less of her
The Return of the Vanishing Cape Breton Fiddler - The life giving traditional music of an island people begins to disappear, but is brought back and somehow…lands on the world stage. - http://kck.st/21GTcY3
- If you have Cape Breton roots or enjoy folk music, this kickstarter will surely be of interest. If it weren’t for the cartoons, people would still be asking me if I was a fiddler (that wasn’t in the stars for ole tone-deaf here though)

I’ve been away from the computer! I hope you all had a good holidayyyyy
If you’d like to follow some stand up fellows making pleasin’ sounds, my buddies here, Bruce and Mike of The Town Heroes, have a new album for you! It’s pretty great and so are they! Here’s the website, you poke around there now.
And follow their facebook, I’ll be cracking up at the updates there. The gum review one gets me every time. Every time!
Just a little one, from my trusty book of manners. I don’t know about Americans, but I love puttin’ my feet up! I won’t do it on your kitchen table though.
Well I have had a very busy year. I finished two books, and published two books, and toured them with four different publishers. I’m writing to you now from my new Nova Scotia home, where I moved to at the end of December. Farewell Toronto! I will miss all my lovely comics friends. If you go to Toronto, be sure to take in The Beguiling comic store, or the Toronto Comic Art Festival (TCAF) in May.
Again, I have everyone here to thank for my books coming off of any bookstore shelf in the first place. Thank you for sticking with me, and my work, all this time. Here’s a cheers, to many more years together. *Clink!* (that was two wine glasses)

we’re on a Scrooge high and we’re not coming down
but you came in through the door with bags
