1) Your all-time favorite children's books. List them:
2) Do you have any favorite illustrators? If so, who?
3) What books wowed you the most with their illustrations?
4) And am I right in thinking that making a movie based upon a book praised for its amazing illustrations is somehow... wrong?
5) I have been informed that Chris VanAllsburg basically wrote _Zathura_ with the movie in mind. Aw, damn, does this officially make him a sellout?
6) Do you own any of VanAllsburg's books? Why the heck not? Why not click that handy Amazon button right away and order _the Mysteries of Harris Burdick_ (his single best, most evocative book IMO) right away?
7) Finally, given that tantelizing opening paragraph, what do you think Mr. Cranky was like as a kid?
