Seen as I walked through grocery store last night — Where is the sticker book for kids who want robot fairies? Queen aliens? My kids (girl and boy) would love most of these — though notice how girls are told their book is “pretty” and “cutesy” and how many of the “boys’” images contain death references — creepy.
“Where is the sticker book for kids who want robot fairies? Queen aliens?”
I feel like this is going to be my next project!
Genevieve, I was hoping you would say that!!!
That might be the idea of the century!
Any special request from your kids?

I wrote a letter to a publishing company once when I saw a book titled “The Big Project Book for Boys (Girls)” for the very same reason. The boy’s book was about camping, dirt, and bugs. The girls’ book was about planning the perfect picnic (complete with alliteration).
Good for you – maybe that’s what we need is a form letter to send off! (Although judging from my latest post, where this conversation continues, that could be a full time job!)
