The 20th Century's Greatest Hits by Paul Williams
In this volume, rock journalist Robert Sullivan provides music lovers with a list of 40 songs that he feels are true works of art, reasoning that art is created the moment that someone responds to music on an emotionally high level. He compares several of his favorite songs--which include lesser-known songs, like the Beatles Things We Said Today --to famous novels, films, and paintings, explaining how different mediums can evoke the same emotions. By selecting lesser-known songs, he encourages readers to think outside of mainstream media and to create their own unique greatest hits list.

Watson-Guptill Sktechbook by Watson-Guptill Publications Staff
Now available in four colors and three sizes, these sketchbooks are ideal for artists on the go. Both serious artists and casual doodlers have found dozens of uses for these handsome sketchbooks, which are now offered in four colors and three sizes. Many choose the popular 8 1/4 x 11 format for working outdoors or toting to art class. Others like to toss the smaller 51/2 x 8 1/4 size or the new 4 x 6 size (hunter green only) into a purse or backpack so they are always ready to jot down visual ideas or sketch an interesting character. The archival-quality, vellum-finish paper is especially appealing to artists. It will not yellow with time, ensuring the preservation of their drawings, and its smooth surface readily accepts pencil, ballpoint, pen-and-ink, charcoal, marker, and other drawing mediums. Artists also appreciate the rounded and sewn bindings, which allow the books to lie flat while they work. The covers have a leather finish but are actually tough, waterproof Kivar. Trim size, number of pages, and other specifications are printed on a peel-off sticker.
