Oh, man, now I want to dig a dinosaur skeleton out of the sand. Seriously, I would have been perfectly happy if nothing else had happened, but there's magic and a wish. The art is lovely, informal and a bit faded looking and loose without being vague. Adorable bedtime book.

You can see all the books on their own shelf. Even as I am trying to catch up on my backlog of reviews in order to clear the TBR shelves for monsters, murder, and suchlike for the two months of All Hallow's Read and Halloween Bingo, I walked out of my libraries yesterday with more books than I could carry into the house in one trip.
What kills me is that I keep checking out books that I have already read, with no recollection.

The things that make them appealing to me, like big critters doing people stuff, must be pretty deeply grounded.

They rise to the challenge.
Now is as good a time as any to mention that I love how Vaughan addressed the traditional gender imbalance of comics: he just created more female characters. Wow, that's easy.

Kevin is now my favorite character. I recommend the graphic novels and the only associated novel I've so far read, Doctor Who: Plague of the Cybermen, as well as the show itself and the vigorous fandom of Twitter as a good shared-family sort of interest. [Veronica loves the show, but prefers her reading more contemporary and realistic]. The graphic novels are providing a good way for me to keep in parallel with Natasha, even though I'm mostly not reading to her anymore.
Yes, I'm following in the footsteps of Neil Gaiman and sharing our multi-generational fandom.
