So there’s a tornado warning. My mom took this pic of what the south side of Edmonton looks like.

WHELP. NOT GONNA GO HOME FROM SCHOOL UNTIL IT’S BRIGHT AND SUNNY OUT.

Jason Carter, “Boo Meets Bear” from Who is Boo.

“Who Is Boo: The Terrific Tales of One Trickster Rabbit is a children’s book that chronicles a perpetually curious rabbit who is in a continual race around the world with his and along the way, meets many animals. The title character is inspired by Nanabozho, a trickster figure in Ojibwe mythology, but the story itself is inspired from the trickster characters prevalent in all ethnicities.”
