I received the new Moonlight Chronicles from D. Price this afternoon. It includes a bunch of drawings from a trip we did to Chicago together several years ago. So I hauled my old book out to have a fresh look at what I’d been drawing.

But for a half dozen volumes or more we were both giddy as schoolgirls about the wee books that fit into a hip pocket, had that accordion pocket to hold all sorts of ephermera that hadn’t yet been pasted in and snapped shut with a satisfying elastic thwack.
A propos of nothing much, My 9-year old and I enjoyed this shop window today. Maybe you will too:
