well clare, like many babies, found the water in the toilets interesting, and she had a habit of digging cool stuff (tin foil, candy wrappers) out of the trash, so one afternoon jane declared "she's a toilet baby and a trash girl" and we're all living in the aftermath of that — PolitiTweet.org

And Carle just depicted it all so beautifully. It's sad to say goodbye to a wonderful artist, but it's good that he left behind a body of work any artist could look at and be satisfied with. We should all hope to excel so much at our callings. Lux Aeterna. — PolitiTweet.org

In Carle's world, that perfect slice of watermelon is *meant* to help this tiny, very hungry caterpillar on a journey he doesn't yet understand, but knows he has to undertake — something I imagine children must understand very acutely, both the apprehension and the enchantment. — PolitiTweet.org

And you get older and you figure that the food the ants got into wasn't, like, *there for the ants* so they could build a cool colony, it's just a gross, random accident that some ants got into your stuff etc — disenchantment. And that's ok. That's life. But. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
And you see that even the broken and ugly things, like food riddled with holes or a caterpillar who feels sick and looks odd or a frantic spider — have their place in the order of things. To kids, gross things are interesting. They mean something. They're enchanted. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
And the beauty of the pictures turns out to be important. The minimalism of the artwork is just a part of the narrative; you're getting as much information out of what you see as what you read: You're learning from looking at the world, just like kids do, before they can read. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
Which is to say that everything is ultra-vivid and shaded as though reflecting several different tones of light simultaneously as though it's moving because everything is almost *alive* with purpose, meaning. Everything is a part of things, everything is on its way somewhere. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
One of the reasons Carle's books are so lovely is that in his artwork and narratives, he seems to capture the world as children see it: Enchanted. This isn't to say magical, as in spells or potions or other things with their own logics and narratives, just: enchanted. — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
I was sad today to hear of the passing of Eric Carle, who created beautiful artwork and many books enjoyed by (not exclusively) children, most famously The Hungry Caterpillar. That book was a favorite of both my daughters, and it's a favorite of mine. It's lovely to read aloud. — PolitiTweet.org

siblings should play together. neighborhood kids are always welcome in our yard. and if my kids get bored, they're aware that's not my problem — i have work to do every day, either market labor or domestic labor or both. they have crayons, chalk, dolls and blocks to make fun. — PolitiTweet.org
