He asked specifically if there was way I could collect them altogether so he could access them easier. Well, there is. I just signed up for claimID, a “free, easy way to manage your online identity”. I’ll add to it as my “online identity” grows, which it likely will, given how addictive the internet can be. :-)

AlisonJayABCInstead, I’m going to tell you about Alison Jay, who illustrates children’s books. I just discovered her. Her illustrations are simply a delight. We have two of her books checked out for Liam right now. It took me forever to realize that each page has an image subtly placed that is then exhibited in a larger form on the next page. It’s kind of like a Where’s Waldo book, but far more intriguing and finer artwork. You can buy her illustration in poster format on an online “boutique” called Oopsy Daisy. Her books are definitely going on my wishlist.
