Happy Birthday to Eric Carle!

While our tweens are certainly not reading Eric Carle anymore for their own reading pleasure, they do delight still in reading these beauitful to their younger siblings. And the girls also still appreciate - perhaps even more so - the amazing collage art.

Miley to Star in Footloose movie remake?

Hollywood rumors have it that Miley Cyrus is being considered for the lead female role in Footloose. Well, she's certainly got the singing and dancing bit down, so Miley Cyrus would be an easy choice to star opposite Chace Crawford (he of Gossip Girl fame) in the movie re-make. 'Tween parents will remember the original movie starrting Kevin Bacon in his breakout role. Are you feeling old yet??
