The Art of George Pérez
George is one of the legendary comic book artists, known for his detailed, realistic style, and knowledge of every superhero ever created. He laments in this book that he's always getting called up to do covers with 100 characters on them, never when it's just a girl on a beach. I'm a big fan of his art, and this is a fine collection thereof, and a nice retrospective in his own words. Recommended.
The Annotated Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, illustrated by Feiffer, annotated by Marcus
A classic kids' novel extolling the virtues of education and showing an interest in the world. The annotations are as often digressive as they are illuminating, and I'm not sure they're worth the higher price. Mildly recommended.
Geek Dad by Ken Denmead
A book of little projects you can do with your kid, from inventing new board games to creating fireflies out of LEDs. Quite recommended to the target market.
All-Star Zeppelin Adventure Stories, edited by Moles and Lake
I added this to my Amazon wish list years ago, at
bluegargantua's recommendation. I finally got around to buying it recently. It's a collection of modern stories about zeppelins, blimps, and the occasional hot air balloon or barrage balloon. Most of them are delightfully pulp, and the ones that aren't are still pretty good. Very recommended.
Bullard Of The Space Patrol by Malcolm Jameson
This is a collection of Golden Age SF stories about the titular patrolman, as he makes his way from ensign to admiral in the Solar System's Space Patrol. They are entertaining, and solidly written, but do not break out of their mold. The author spends a lot of time on the virtues of a strong military and adherence to military tradition; any resemblance to Hornblower is probably intentional. Very out of print, but recommended to those with an interest in Golden Age SF.
