This has absolutely nothing to do with jewish books but the inspiration-redux for one of my favourites: Make Way for the Ducklings.
All of us remember Robert McCloskey's children's books. He was (and still is) probably one of my favourite children's authors. I have all of his children's picture books in the la Javura library. I translated Blueberries for Sal, One Morning in Maine and Make Way for the Ducklings... I've played on the bronze statures of the ducks Jack, Kack, Lack, Mack, Nack, Ouack, Pack and Quack in the Boston Common. It never occurred to me, though I figured OK it could have happened maybe once as a fluke, that the duck march through a city to take the ducklings down to the water could inspire the same happy event. http://www.spokane.net/stay_connected/HotTopics_DuckHero.aspx Good summer to all Besos de Valencia Alba Toscano Sinagoga conservador/masorti La Javura Valencia (Spain) http://www.uscj.org/world/valencia Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) =========================================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
