Today, I’m continuing my series of blogs taking a more critical eye to books that are aimed at the younger set. This one has been a favorite of mine since I can remember. It’s The Monster at the End of This Book, featuring Grover from Sesame Street. If you had parents that hated you, I’ll […]
So this month’s blogs are all supposed to be about kids and parenting. But the big day isn’t until tomorrow…so now…we wait and talk about other things. We were singled out as on of the top 100 “Comic” blogs to watch. When I heard this, I thought, “Finally! I’m getting a little recognition as a […]
A long while ago, someone got me a “children’s book” by Jerry Seinfeld. Available wherever people are still selling books I put “children’s book” in quotes because it’s really just a bit from his act turned SUPER G-rated and illustrated. Not that it’s less cool because of this, I just didn’t want to make it […]
For some reason, Curious George is a beloved series of books that has been around forever. Despite the fact that his first adventure begins with him being kidnapped from Africa and brought forcibly to America, parents seem to love to share these tales with their kids.

I was recently watching a Watchmojo video where they ranked the top 10 DC Comic Book movies. I decided their list was kinda crap so I decided to make my own list. But I’m not limiting myself to DC, and I’m stopping at 5 movies. Other than that, their exactly the same. (If you read […]
Tim Babb’s April Foolishness Day 21 Not too long ago, it was announced that Kevin Smith an Ralph Garman are going to write a comic book mini series crossover with Batman and the Green Hornet. The twist is, the comic is set in the world of the Adam West Batman TV show and the Bruce […]
Tim Babb’s April Foolishness Day 10 Children’s books seem to get a pass on criticism…but I don’t know why. A lot of these books could use a few more rewrites before they hit the shelves. One such book is Froggy Eats Out My son is obsessed with the “Froggy” series of books. Froggy is kind […]
Talkin’ Turkey With Tim Babb Day 2 Something I meant to get back to in Blog2ober was talking about some of the books I read to my son. I’ve been meaning to talk about the classic, “Everyone Poops.” Now the temptation is to make a bunch of poop jokes, but I think that would make […]
30 Days and 30 Blogs Day 9 As a father, I get to read a lot of different books to my son. This experience is surprisingly more rewarding than pre-parent Tim would have guessed. (Apparently it’s also good for the kid. Learning or something. Whatevs.) But the downside is that you have to read a […]
So my wife and I were discussing our upcoming trip to Disney World/Universal Studios Florida, and I brought up the new Harry Potter “Land” at Universal. My wife asked if J.K Rowling was getting a piece of that. I’m not sure but I bet she is making a mountain of cash from that. That got […]
