    Summer Blues

    We were excited to know we aren't the only ones with fond memories of Robert McCloskey's classic 1948 picture book Blueberries For Sal; the charming blog "Reading With Toddlers" devotes an entry to the story of a girl, a baby bear and blueberries going "kerplunk!" — a hit with the author's little daughter. (For those of you in Maine, in case you were wondering, yes, we are accepting free gifts of wild blueberries.) [Reading With Toddlers]
