Okay folks, it is time to talk about The Story of Mankind.



Visit Colby Sharp's blog to hear his thoughts on The Story of Mankind.


My goal is to take a picture with each winner.



The Story of Mankind is available as a free ebook through Project Guttenberg.




Make sure you read The Story of Mankind before you watch the movie. It has the best tagline: "Never So Vast An Undertaking! More Than Your Eyes Have Ever Seen!" You know you want to see if your public library owns it. (Note: You will not find it in my DVD player. EVER!)


The cover on the right was designed by Travis Jonker (aka Scope Notes). He is redesigning the covers of Newbery Medal-winning books.

Here are his rules:

*I'll use FlickrCC to search for Creative Commons-licensed images using keywords related to the book being redesigned.


*I'll use Photosphop or websitse Picnic and Splashuup to create the finished product.
