I love this, probably because I love New York based artist\/illustrator Maira Kalman<\/a> so much, not to mention my love for vintage photographs of girls standing on lawns… oh, and would you look at that, that’s the name of the beautiful book that Maira Kalman and writer Daniel Handler <\/a>{a.k.a. Lemony Snicket}<\/a> <\/em>created together! The first, very poetic, page reads:<\/p>\n

\n
One morning
\nwe found some photographs.
\nOne morning
\nthese girls stood on lawns.
\nWe looked at the pictures,
\nand we got to work.
\nThere’s no use standing around.
\nYou should do something.
\nThis is the whole thing.<\/address>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That really<\/em> is the whole thing, isn’t it… LOVE! On Sunday, June 1 at MoMA<\/a> {who actually published this little gem}<\/em>, Maira Kalman and Daniel Handler will celebrate their new book, Girls Standing on Lawns<\/a><\/em>, with a garden party featuring 1930s-style Parisian jazz from the Hot Club of Flatbush. From 3-5 p.m. in The Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden. {Free with Museum admission}<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>ps. I have a copy of this book for myself, <\/em>and… I have one to\u00a0give away!<\/strong> Leave a comment below and I’ll draw one name on Monday morning at 8am PST. Good luck!<\/em><\/p>\n
