My 8-year-old son was gifted a GameBoy for his birthday. We found some games I remembered playing as a kid and while playing them himself he said, “It’s like I’m touching your childhood.” 😊

Clam Down by Anelise Chen is a magical book, blending memoir, natural history, and biography while serving up delightful asides and playing with form. 10/10 plane/vacation read. And now I’m obsessed with mollusks 🦪 🐚
