GRAND Magazine - April 2009 - (Page 14) grand central Crisp piCks: editor’s ChoiCe Who’s there? billy Jonas, with the “Knock Knock” song on his newest CD for kids, Happy Accidents. Not one of the Jonas brothers—in case you’re as square as we are— Billy Jonas is a grownup who is also an educator. He has an international rep for his work with families and children (another CD, What Kind of Cat Are You? won the Parent’s Choice Gold Award). Listen, enjoy. CliCk on soUnd bUtton to plaY song Most astonishingly beautiful, informative book we’ve seen in years: The Illustrated Atlas of Wildlife, out this month from the University of California Press . Everything you can imagine, and far more, Horatio, on wild animals around the world, depicted in nearly a thousand photographs and illustrations. At $40, it’s the grand gift of the year. Hundreds of hours of fascinating reading with the beloved ones. (What I especially love is the tag line: “Too smart for a movie, too big for a TV show, so much it could only fit inside a book.”). Vegan grand blogger Michelle Rivera has joined the PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) Web site as “The Vegan Grandmother.” In one post she gives “Tips for Coping with Nonvegan Family Members” and advises, “One of my animal rights friends has not seen her grandchildren in years because her daughter-in-law refuses to let her kids be around ‘that nutcase’ who ‘spouts that vegetarian stuff.’ Tread carefully, fellow grandparents, or you may lose your visitation privileges, too, and that would be a terrible thing. You may need to be patient now so that you will have the opportunity to influence them later. Don’t preach. Teach. Look for teachable moments, because they are gifts….” Highly recommended Web site, with good discussions from many points of view—including the vegetarian or vegan grandchildren who feel like outsiders. Worth checking out.
