. . .what to get for dad: what better gift this father's day than the book he wishes he had as a child?

this compendium of how-to's for children and inner-children everywhere provides hours of stone-skipping, water-bombing, true-north-finding and even latin-speaking FUN.

a new york times best-seller, the dangerous book for boys is a hardcover classic to hand down to boys -- and girls -- for future generations of danger and fun.

whimsy and hope meet in our "harold and the purple library" tees and CDs. as in the children's classic, harold draws the library to life, and the quote reads: "luckily, he kept his wits and his purple crayon." proceeds go directly to the georgetown library recovery + restoration fund. (fire devastated the library on april 30th; the children's reading room was hardest hit.)

benefit tees are available in kids' and adults' sizes. the benefit CD is a compilation of songs from gypsy eyes records artists. add a copy of harold and the purple crayon and we'll throw in free shipping on your tee/CD orders through june 30th!
