New Seuss, Gaffigan goes sitcom and a NW photo follow

BOOK | Discovered by his widow in 2013, Dr. Seuss' WHAT PET SHOULD I GET? was published last week, more than 50 years after its creation. Seuss left behind both the manuscript and finished line art for Pet, which appears to be sort of a prequel to one of his most famous works, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish. Pet tells of two children going to a pet store and having to decide which one animal to take home. The fun, simple story is perfect for beginning readers, while adults will enjoy reading the eight-page afterword detailing the book's discovery and Seuss' own love for pets.











TELEVISION | If you're looking to spice up your Wednesday nights, check out comedian Jim Gaffigan's new show on TV Land, THE JIM GAFFIGAN SHOW. Inspired by his real life, Gaffigan plays Jim, a man who tries to balance his comedy career with his hectic family. Jim causes full-fledged laughs in episode three when he's forced to attend an 8 am birthday party for a 6-year-old. The only food there is a red velvet cake, which his wife banned him from due to an incident in Vegas where he ate an entire cake.









INSTAGRAM | When it comes to beautiful pictures on social media, it's hard to beat the photography seen on THE NORTHWEST ADVENTURE (@the_nw_adventure). This Instagram account features breathtaking shots of scenery from all over Washington, Oregon, Idaho and western Canada. Not only will you be filled with wanderlust, you can keep favorite locations in mind if you ever get the hankering to go on a scenic hike or camping with the family. Be sure to take pictures when you do, because they primarily post follower submissions.
