\"\"<\/a>I just picked up The Easter Beagle Egg Hunt<\/strong><\/a>, the new kids book. It’s a light-scale board book with plastic easter egg shapes that peak through the pages, plus one pop-up. The art adaptation is actually quite nice on this one. Six two-page spreads. Not a deeply meaningful or important book, but not a bad thing to throw into some kid’s easter basket, I reckon.<\/p>\n

This one, I actually didn’t order from Amazon, but picked up at\u00a0 Borders bookstore that’s within walking distance. I don’t know if you’ve been to a Borders lately, but it’s very strange to do so. The chain is in serious financial trouble. Most of the items they carry are carried on a returnable basis, which means that by returning books to the publisher, they free up some money. So there’s fewer books. Now I’m hearing that publishers are being unwilling to send them product on the usual credit terms, and that also means fewer books. For a while, they were doing some creative rearranging that kept the stores from looking hollowed out of material. But now, it’s too much. It’s a very sad effect.<\/p>\n

Anyway, speaking of the Easter Beagle, ABC has announced that they will air It’s The Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown<\/em> on April 7th – and to round out the hour, they will air Charlie Brown’s All-Stars<\/em>. Which means this is the third AAUGH Blog post in a row to mention Charlie Brown’s All-Stars<\/em>! Woohoo!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
