I just got a bunch of English-language children's books, that I am familiar with and love, translated into French, since I'm hoping to major in French. It was one of my favorite Christmas presents, especially since I couldn't think of anything yarn-oriented I wanted right then. Children’s books rock!

Define children's books? My wife is a voracious reader of YA (young adult) titles and being a librarian with 2 children we are always reading. I will even be at ALA next week and have an opportunity to see many of the new childrens and YA books that are coming out I am very excited.

I think the only thing weird about your list is that you think these things could be classified as weird. Would love to support the podcast, but would rather just pledge instead of buying something. Do you have a paypal account, where we could pledge now? Other podcasts have gone this route. Go Geography Go!

There are more of us than you know. But I'm really excited about another knitting Geographer! As far as being weird, weird is as weird does. We are all weird and normal at the same time. Happy New Year!! I’m a Geographer too! There are more of us than you know. But I’m really excited about another knitting Geographer!

Well, the llama might be a bit much, but then again, my mother is from Newfoundland and one of my all time favorite foods in the world is a native dish called Fish & Bruise (now the "bruise" may be mispelled, but you get the idea). It's salt cod, soaked in water over night combined with "hard bread" - think stale dinner rolls - that have also been soaked to soften. Cook together and add lots of butter and oh my goodness - it is yummy!!!! Next time you visit, you'll have to spend time with our youngest son who is 5 and also a "geographer" or at least one in training. Literally, he knows more geography than the average adult, rides in the car with our navigation system on and the Western Mass Road Atlas on his lap. Favorite website, google maps. Hey Guido

Cheese belongs on hotdogs. Ask anyone from Wisconsin! And as a retired kindergarten teacher, there is nothing healthier for the soul than a good, and I repeat and emphasize the word good, children's book. I really miss reading to children everyday. At our church's Christmas dinner I was privileged to read a children's story aloud. I felt so at home with it and very happy to be back in the ol' rockin' chair of kiddie lit!

If you like children's books, you must read Gregor the Overlander. It's a series. My third graders love it. So, do I! You’re not so weird.
