get this book or cry tryin'

in the kitchenette at work, there are letters posted from underprivileged elementary school children asking for some books they would like for x-mas. we're supposed to donate some money to help buy these. one girl's letter says that she would either like a book by eric carle, anastasia krupnik by lois lowry, or from pieces to weight by 50 cent. hey little leasa, turn that frown upside down. as meatloaf would sing, two out of three ain't bad.
