The illustrator’s dog Brooke Barker is not the smartest dog or licking, but, as Brooke says, “the best things do not have to be the most jump or the most licks.”
The best things either have to be the newest or most bright or the fastest. “I swear there are only about five good pen in the world and they are all old,” Brooke wrote this week in his bulletin, never nervous. “And my favorite shirt is the shirt I got when I played rec soccer in fourth grade.”
Although the best things do not always look Like the best things, you know them when you see them. My most appreciated novels are old and with dog ears, and when I am eating alone, I go to a bowl of Cheerios.
And one of my favorite things in our house is how the windows of our living room are covered with handprints for children.
What things don’t flashy trees? The question makes me think of this poem by Kate Baer, above. Xoxo
