2. A Rule Is To Break: A Child's Guide To Anarchy stuff

A Rule Is To Break: A Child’s Guide To Anarchy is now available to order - here’s the Amazon link, here’s the Barnes and Noble link, the Target link, and be sure to check out your favorite local bookstore and some nice museum stores that we are told is carrying it like Mass MoCA, NY MoMA, Chicago MoCA, Boston MFA, SF MoMA, SF Cartoon Art Museum, Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), Portland Art Museum (Oregon), Berkeley Art Museum (California), Menil Collection Musem (Houston), and Walker Art Center (Minneapolis).

Here is a Publishers Weekly review for the book that came out today! “Many children’s books encourage self-expression and free thought; few take those ideas as far as this collaboration from Seven and Christy … Seven and Christy’s heroine wouldn’t look out of place in a Peter H. Reynolds story, and their message isn’t far from his work either—it’s just been cranked up to 11.”

ALSO - anyone in the Boston area, we will be at the Boston Anarchist Book Fair on Saturday, Nov. 10, with copies of Anarchy, as well as some mini-comics in tow.

15. Occupy 1.2.3.

 

Our new picture book is not a huge deal … literally, because it’s a teeny-tiny download-it-print-it-fold-it-distribute-it-yourself mini picture book called Occupy 1.2.3. We made it especially for Occupiers who find their encampment busted up by the cops and their library seized – or worse, destroyed. They can just stick copies of Occupy 1.2.3. in their pockets out of the reach of the cops and pass them around so people can get a simple idea about the Occupy movment and also some giggles, too! And even if you’re not one of the campers and just a supporter, feel free to download it and pass it along to anyone who you think needs it!

Visit our Occupy 1.2.3. page by clicking HERE and download away!

Make your own mini booklet! 

Print them up, cut them out, tape them together, fold up like an accordion, and stick it in your pocket to hide it from the cops!

24. Another Anarchy rave!

Idzie at I‘m Unschooled. Yes I Can Write. wrote this great review of the Anarchy book. Idzie gets it! Thanks, Idzie! Everyone should pay a lot of attention to Idzie’s blog – we can imagine she was at least a bit like Wild Child when she was a little kid!
