Checked on #TheLittleManOfDisneyland today, and he has a tiny little purple duck in front of his house as well as a few coins.

I ended up explaining his story to a few of the people sitting nearby. At first, I think they thought I'd lost my mind until they looked closer and actually saw the door, and when I mentioned that there was even a #LittleGoldenBooks about him, one lady said she loved those. #Disneyland

Said hello to Tilly last night, and Tilly is decked out in her spooky finery. But someone forgot to give her some tea. She definitely needs some tea to go with her delicious looking treat.

And you know that Tilly has *all* the tea. I think we need to know more about her. The #TheLittleManOfDisneyland has his own #LittleGoldenBook . I think Tilly needs her own. #LittleGoldenBooks #Disneyland #Halloweentime

I dreamed:
I was living in nyc, I'd never left... a common dream for me.
I went to a big, dark, crowded, messy comics shop on 72nd street, where the TRADER JOE'S is. I was a regular there.
I was digging through the Bargain Box, where they put promos and damaged comics. Fancy new replicas of classic LITTLE GOLDEN BOOKS had just been issued, and I found two of them, TUFFY, THE TOUGH LITTLE MOUSE and PORKY PIG AT HOME. The covers had beautiful gold embossing, rather than the gold foil.
I found another comic, the title referred to heating - I think it was THERMODYNAMIC - and it was about Joan of Arc. i started to buy it as well, but I saw that it was issue 7, and I wanted to start from the beginning of the series.
I knew I would have to justify these purchases with someone somewhere along the way, so my story, which I was Iendlessly rehearsing, so I''d be ready when asked, was: "I'm a comics professional; these are for reference."
It was very important that I NOT let on that I was reading these comics for pleasure, that I enjoyed the art and story; I HAD to justify it as "a business expense".

Today is #nationalFairyTale day.
I remember reading #LittleGoldenBooks of #Disney type fairy tales and other stories by #HansChristianAnderson. Our kids Little Golden books are all #StarWars adaptations so I thought they should hear some original tales so I started looking up some #Grimm tales. We did #HansMyHedgehog and the original #Cinderella.

Here are a couple nice collections of non Disney tales here:
