Michelle Trachtenberg apparently just died at the age of 39.

Death isn't being investigated as suspicious. I thought she made it out of the child actor death spiral. Seems like first reports say she might have had medical complications.

(edit: clarifying)

The more I learn about , the more I think of . The way she observed her peers to make sense of them, and ate only tomato sandwiches for lunch.

Granted, suppose one might be also stuck explaining what a "transistor radio" is (Harriet has one in the intro), or what a "typewriter" is, or why the TVs are in black-and-white (with dials on them). Though I suppose thanks to the current vinyl craze, "what are records?" is a dead question. 🙂

While I haven't read the book, Harriet's best friend here is Black.

One episode touches on racism (white artists re-recording songs by Black people), though doesn't directly say the words "discrimination" or "racism." Given kids are the target audience, maybe saying such would've been better?

On a lighter note, I wonder how many parents/grandparents are stuck explaining to kids watching what a "phone booth" is.... 🙂

On Apple TV+ (via a free trial): the animated adaptation of "Harriet the Spy." Jane Lynch voices Harriet's nanny.

Like the book, the show's set in the mid-1960s, reflected in the clothes/soundtrack/technology. A parody of "The $10,000 Pyramid" is a popular game show, while Harriet's father works on a TV variety show.

#Question: What is the connection between #Zellers, #HarrietTheSpy, and #AlbertCamus's #TheOutsider? Besides having rambling piles of #Books waiting to be read, I also have a small collection of aging #BookMarks. 😄 🔖 #BookMark

My bookmark of choice was a Zellers sales promotion (The Harriet The Spy TV Movie DVD 2010).

I used a classic #Canadian #HistoricalArtifact when reading The Outsider by Albert Camus 1942 (Translation by #StuartGilbert 1946) Penguin Books 1976 edition - #PicturePromptBingo card #ReadingPrompt.

NOTES: Harriet The Spy, published in 1964, is considered a classic of #ChildrensLiterature. Like Camus's protagonist, Meursault, Harriet must navigate a set of social rules, as she makes observations of those around her.

Zellers has been a beloved iconic Canadian outsider brand, that has increased in nostalgic affection since closing. HBC is trying to capitalize on this, by reintroducing it as a store within a store.

Harriet the Spy was challenged in 1983 at a school board meeting in Xenia, Ohio, where some argued the book encouraged children to disrespect their parents by lying, talking back, cursing, and spying on others.
