Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
In the blog, he mentions that he would have put in Pippi Longstocking if he had more space. He seriously picked Little Lord Faunteroy over Pippi? Or, actually, over Secret Garden?

In the blog, he also puts in the lists of books that his kids told him should have been on the list. His daughter, in addition to Twilight, also said Tree Grows in Brooklyn, which she says is the "best book ever." His kids also seem to like fantasy a lot more than he does.

Oooh... where's Teppy? From his blog post:
So now it’s your turn. What are your favorite children’s books, and why would you recommend them? Some readers will undoubtedly come for ideas, so be detailed and persuasive. And of course, kids are welcome to list their own favorites. But if you mention a comic book, I’m going to report you to your school librarian!
