The Flu Fairy is visiting. His name is Ralph.

I'm so grateful we had the sense to invest in a carpet shampooer when we got our tax refund last spring.  And I'm grateful that I have a 15 year old who thought it would be fun to try it out on the "stuff" her brother left in the hallway (I thought I was being nice buying them that candy corn at 75% off, I didn't expect to see it again once it had been consumed though).

But enough about that.

Here is something cute.  The little characters remind me of the It's a Small World ride at Disneyland (in a good way though).  I love all the bright, happy colors.  It was published in 1964 which was an okay year (things definitely improved in '65 though).

Here are a couple pages from the inside.  The pictures look kinda grainy to me but it's actually the the way the pages look.

These kitties remind me of Richard Scary's Busytown folks.

Now off to find the Pepto. 

Darn kids.  When I told them to share I didn't mean this.
