Episode 201: A to Z and Back Again

Reading an A to Z book by Maira Kalman

In Episode 201, random moments that may or may not be related, a loosely recurring theme of memory, and a bizarre moment with the household fish. Plus, three books for young readers that you will want to read aloud and then spend time admiring and sharing the art. Near the end, an A to Z prompt that ties it all together.

Books talked about in Episode 201:

• What Pete Ate

• Ah-Ha to Zig-Zag: 31 Objects from Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum

• Enormous Smallness: A Story of E. E. Cummings

Fantastic illustration in Enormous Smallness!

Final page of A to Z book by Maira Kalman. (Plus, a sleeping dog. The bow is a vestige of a visit to the groomer!)
