In my younger and more vulnerable years my father gave me some advice that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since.

“Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”

[There Is Nothing Wrong With This Book Cover Whatsoever]
Oh, wait… This was on a proof that almost went to print, but was caught before it wound up scarring children/subliminally enticing lonely housewives in Barnes and Noble. Cannot be unseen.

Very wrong lighting LOL

DEMI TUHANNNNNN!!! Ada nggak yang pas kecil baca seri Tini ini? Sumpah ya ini buku anak-anak favorit gue sepanjang hayat! Dulu gue punya banyaaaaak banget, dibeliin ibu sama dapet warisan dari sodara gue. Ada Tini Berkemah (covernya demikian di atas. Itu Tini, yang sebelah kiri kalo nggak salah namanya Yan deh. Buku ini sukses bikin gue kepingin punya tenda!), Tini ke Taman Ria (gue suka banget yang ini), Tini ke Pantai (pas ke pantai gue minta dibikinin bak dari pasir kayak punya Tini ke Bapak, tapi dibikininnya bak yang kotak doang. Pokoknya nggak kayak punya Tini =_=), terus juga ada Andros Singa… ADUH KANGEN!Tadi lagi keinget Tini. Gue cari-cari kok susah banget, eeeh… ternyata Tini aslinya bernama Martine. Jadi curiga Tini versi Indonesia mungkin nama lengkapnya Martini.Yang gue sukaaaaaaaaaaaa banget dari seri Tini ini adalah ILUSTRASINYA! Langsunglah search di Flickr dan nemu group Marcel Marlier si ilustrator dewa itu. Ya, gue yang waktu itu masih TK suka sekali mengamati ilustrasi buku ini, warna-warnanya, betapa cantiknya Tini, bagus banget pokoknya. Sumpah kangen banget, sayang buku-buku gue sudah diwariskan entah ke siapa. Pokoknya gue harus tanya ke Ibu!
