  1. Alex really did a great job with Too Cool. When I read that book I could see all those kids who were exactly like that ‘back in the day’. I think the library market is going to really love this book. Even the more adventuresome high school educators will pick it up.

    Great store too. If you havent been to McNally Robinson yet, you are missing out on a great indie store.

  2. This comic is awesome, but he needs to move it off LJ onto it’s own site. LJ is hell to navigate for stuff like this. Is it going to be Act-i-vate’d, I wonder?
