eclair, etc. : Blog

9.29.2004

Ok, maybe not a a tech blog, but a geek blog...

I am not much of tech-oriented person. I like information a lot and I wish I knew how to make information available to others aside from being a librarian. I guess that's one of the reasons why I like posting Furl and del.icio.us a lot and try to make them accessible to others.

Anyway, I decided that this is going to be more of my geek blog, which means it would not just cover the tech stuff I am looking at or dabbling into but also books, games, etc.

Let me take this time to plug (eherm!) one of the books that I just bought today (after digging through various National Bookstore outlets' shelves):

Mister Beetle's Many Rooms by Robert Magnuson

This is a children's book published by Adarna House and it is in two languages, English and Filipino. It is not expensive at the price of Php52. It is a book that is recommended for children ages 10-11 years old.

The blurb goes like this:
Mr. Beetle posted a sign in front of his house that read - This House of Five Rooms Belongs to Mr. Beetle. No Tresspassing Please. But soon, other creatures came to live in his house and his house seemed to be growing rooms!

If you are with kids a lot and you teach them and do things with them or if they have birthdays and you don't know what to give, do check out this book:)

If you think you have heard of Robert Magnuson, you might have already read Shirley's Pets. You could read his blog on The Quackfest!

By the way, he also has another book which is "The Spectacular Tree" and it is published by Lampara.
