“Who said that every wish, would be heard and answered, when wished on the morning star? Somebody thought of that and someone believed it, look what its done so far.”
— Rainbow Connection

10 seconds after learning about this book's existence, I bought a copy.

I'm only 15/600 pages done, but I'm already gushing about this most recent homage to a gentle genius determined to leave behind a legacy of kindness, self-acceptance and whimsy. If those aren't ideas worth leaving behind then I don't know what are!

Jim Henson and the whole Muppet gang have been a source of inspiration to me for a long time, hence my 2011 treatise on the intersections of Kermit and global health. 

I cannot wait to delve a little into their history. To a merry couple of weeks!
