I need to buy it so I can make love to it and have ish babies!


Ok here is a book that I am madly in love with. It has caused me to say the quote, I am using for the post title, to a friend in casual conversation. It was a little awkward. Anyways I am demanding you go out and buy this book. You will be glad you did. Then you too can make love to it and have ish babies! It is "Ish" by Peter Reynolds. Here is a synopsis of the book:
"Drawing is what Ramon does. It's what makes him happy. But in one split second, all that changes. A single reckless remark by Ramon's older brother, Leon, turns Ramon's carefree sketches into joyless struggles. Luckily for Ramon, though, his little sister, Marisol, sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something a lot more valuable than getting things just "right." Combining the spareness of fable with the potency of parable, Peter Reynolds shines a bright beam of light on the need to kindle and tend our creative flames with care."
