An awesome awesome new creation by Mr G, written in the same spirit as the video john green did-- "How to Make Guys Like You".

I LOVE IT (blueberry girl) it's so sweet and lovely yet empowering and filled with hope at the same time! And Charles Vess is ah-may-zing. With a capital A. He did statues for stardust before, and they were so magical and true to the spirit of the book. I wish I had someone read this to me when I was little. I wish I could read this to a little girl! *searches for little girls*

The video makes me so happy and hopeful. It makes me believe that the world still has people who believe in the power of text to move someone, and the importance of treasuring the girls and women around you.

And that there are still people who painstakingly draw illustrations by hand, unlike disney, who thinks it's cheaper to just merge with pixar and make computer animations.

Meh. I'm digressing. Someone remind me to do the Master List of books macheriepooky has done!
