Happy Valentine’s Day!

Introducing a first of its kind: the book to read to your dog before bed. The Bedtime Book for Dogs is a charming story about a dog who decides he’d rather walk to the park by himself than wait [...]

Gossip – For Your Consideration

For Your Consideration!

My friend and neighbor Melissa Leo, the Meryl Streep of the indies, has now stepped into the mainstream and it seems she’s ruffling a few peacock feathers. After stellar performances in 21 Grams and Frozen River, her role in this year’s The Fighter has earned her deserved high praise and numerous [...]
