RIP, Donald J. Sobol and Kitty Wells


  Author Donald J. Sobol has died at 87. His great "Encyclopedia Brown" series was a staple of my childhood. (You may recall that Brown died in 2003!!!)


And the great country singer Kitty Wells has died at 92. Read the trailblazer's New York Times obit HERE.

NO! I was just looking up "Encyclopedia Brown" books yesterday for Kindle... Which are WAY over-priced, if you asked me. A while back, I got a huge compilation volume in hardback for my nephew and I to read together whenever I go home for a visit. RIP Mr. Sobol!

I had complete forgotten about these books. Had a friend that had the series, and I borrowed a few. Great read. Sad news about Donald and Kitty. RIP.
