Album? Yes, I vaguely remember my old gran saying something about those. Played on a gramophone device of some sort, yes? ;)

Indeed. A Victrola was also good.

I can! It was marvelous.

The other picture book that makes a smashing present for grown-up women and girls is Blueberry Girl by Neil Gaiman, for completely different reasons.

By which you mean peanut butter and birdseed or whatever, and not one made from Elvis Poultry, yes?

Oh, Kelly, you absolutely made my day. Thank you. Thankyouverymuch.

I have something to crow about thanks to the oh-so-amazing Dan Santat: Chicken Dance has been accepted into the Society of Illustrators Original Art 2009 Show. Dan's submitting the piece featured above.

I saw that last tidbit over at Dan's blog - not sure what it means, exactly, but it sounds good!
