Remember those books? I loooved them. Of course I am a bit of a control freak, so it should come as no surprise I enjoyed dictating the outcome of the books I read. I was happy to find that they have made a comeback. I was buying a book for a 9 year old boy's birthday last year and the... ahem... young lady at the store was very enthusiastic about "these really cool books." It took me forever to select the gift, sitting in the aisle at Borders and flipping through, seeing what I remembered and what I didn't, reminiscing.
Anyway, these books are what I came to mind when I plugged in the camera and these pictures uploaded (this is what Daddy does for fun when Mama isn't looking). What was Turtle doing? Where was his going? What was his back story? The narratives developed in my head. Potential blog posts all. Then I realized, why not let you choose your own adventure.
Bedouin. Pirate. Gypsy. Little Drummer Girl. Drag queen. Drama queen.
You decide....
