Literary classics
Are these boom times for Kid Lit or what? “Surely it says something about Powell’s loyalists that ‘Captain Underpants and The Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman’ is currently our bestselling book — we’re just not sure exactly what.” That from the ever-so-literate Powell’s Books email newsletter that arrived this morning. On a work trip to Portland a couple of months ago, I got a chance to hang out at Powell’s for an evening. Everything they say about that place is true. It is Disneyland without Disney, Barnum & Bailey for the brain. Pack up your kids and make a pilgrimage. If you can’t, at least start using Powells.com instead of that other one.
