This week's book & such links from around the web!
1. Random House to Publish Lost Dr. Seuss Stories. “ ‘I wish,’ yelled the duck, and he started to scream,/ ‘For eight thousand buckets of purple ice cream!/ A trunk full of toothpaste! A big kitchen sink!/ And lots of brass keyholes! And gallons of ink!’ ” This vociferous narrator, a greedy duck named McKluck, learns a lesson in the title story of The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories, a collection of seven tales by Seuss that were published in Redbook in 1950 and 1951.
2. Famous Author Rejection Letters: True Stories Of Unbelievable Rejections. Many new or mid-level writers have received nasty or rude rejection letters. But when famous author rejection letters come to light, people laugh and say “What were those editors (or literary agents) thinking?”
3. Ana White, How to build a pallet book shelf. A simple bookcase made from pallets and a few 1x4's.
The measurements will vary based on the size of the pallets used. Be on the lookout for donor pallets to provide wood for the shelves and support pieces. If you don't have enough pallet wood to make the shelves you'll need to buy some 1x4's In sketchup the shelves are 36" long.4. Dr. Seuss Baby Shower via Pizzazzerie: We are loving this adorable Dr. Seuss baby shower sent in by desert table style maven, Heather Equitz of Heather Equitz Designs! From the “hop on popcorn” to the “Truffula Trees”, Heather didn’t miss a detail– all things Seuss were represented on this clever + cute dessert table! Such a bright and fun idea for your next gathering!
Have a great weekend!
