Thanks and Have Fun Running the Country: Kids' Letters to President Obama
A few days after President Barack Obama was elected as the 44th president of the United States, kids from all over the country were asked to send him letters giving him advice, making requests, and just generally being cute and hilarious.

- "Dear President Obama, I want to tell you hi.
Flashback: Hygiene For the Worker
This awesome book, Hygiene for the Worker was written in 1912 and can be found on this amazing Internet book archives site. (Click on that link and it's like having the book in front of you — you can turn the pages and everything!)

Book of the Day: The Museum of Bad Art — Masterworks
The Museum of Bad Art, located in a basement somewhere in Massachusetts, describes itself as "a unique institution dedicated to the celebration of artistic effort, however misguided."
