Great Children's Books

So, I am always on the look out for great children's books, both visually and contextually. Below are a couple of our favorites, what are yours?

Alberta, are you out there?

Does anyone have the Youngs' contact info? I've misplaced their e-mail addresses...Anyone have an e-mail address or phone number? Apart from wondering how they're doing, I need to talk to Brad about choir stuff. Specifically, I need the old choir e-mail list. Thanks!

Free Night of Theater is back!!

Free Night of Theater is back this year! Some of us did this last year and it was lots of fun. Free theater tickets if you go on or around Oct. 18 (sorry, the big Broadway shows usually don't participate). All you have to do is go to www.freenightoftheater.net starting at noon on Monday the 8th to reserve tickets. You can reserve two at a time. Tickets go quickly, so get right in there!

The shows are listed by title and location. Two close ones that sounded interesting to me were Jekyll and Hyde (the musical, playing in Fullerton) and Doubt, a parable (non-musical "cat-and-mouse" drama, playing in Costa Mesa). There are plenty of interesting ones playing in the LA area too.
