A Baby's Work Is Never Done: A Rugrats Commic Strip Collection
No matter where kids are growing up, no matter what challenges they face, they're still focused on family, friends, food, and the freedom to do what they want-although not necessarily in that order. That becomes perfectly clear in A Baby's Work Is Never Done, one of the funniest takes on growing up to come along in years.
This sharp and witty comic strip for today's kids (and adults) was spun off the highly successful Nickelodeon TV series, which has become a modern classic. Children and their families just can't get enough of the Rugrats characters, including brave Tommy, cowardly Chuckie, oddball twins Phil and Lil, and bossy Angelica. They may be babies, but their personalities ring true for people of all ages.
The fun of the comic strip comes in seeing the world through the Rugrats' unique, sincere perspective on a day-to-day basis. Just as comical is the physical humor that spills out across backyards, playgrounds, and bedrooms.

Time and the Literary by Karen Newman, ISBN 0415939607
The immediacy of information technology has supposedly annihilated time and the literary. Email, cell phones, satellite broadcasting seem to have ended the long-standing tradition of encoding our experience of time through writing. Paul de Man's seminal essay "Literary History and Literary Modernity" and newly commissioned essays on everything from the human genome to grammatical tenses argue, however, that the literary constantly reconstructs our understanding of time. From eleventh-century France...
