AWARDS RECEIVED:

I received this award from Velvet at: http://vvb32reads.blogspot.com/ She is an amazing blogger, has a terrific blog, and is the reason I have a new -found curiosity for Steampink. Yeah you read it right! Check her blog out!!!

I received a special prize from my blogger friend Marcia at http://teawithmarce.blogspot.com/
The prize was up to $15 at The Book Depository, my choice. She gave this to many blogger friends of hers, that have supported her.
In lieu of her kindness and generosity, I asked her to give mine back, and donate a book, new or used, in my name, to a shelter or library in her area. She gave, and in turn I gave. It feels good. I suggest we all give, even a book.
She is indeed going to donate a recommendation by me, A Note From An Old Acquaintance by Bill Walker to her local library.
Thanks again Marcia, you truly are a gem!

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
