Stick Dog Wants a Hamburger

Stick Dog and his four friends - Stripes, Mutt, Poo-Poo and Karen - will do anything to steal some sweet-smelling hamburgers from a family at Picasso Park. Their plans to do so are both devious and wacky. Illustrated with bold pastels, this story breaks the conventions of the traditional picture book: The narrative is conversational, the illustrations are loud and accessible and the story is longer (about 6,000 words) and aimed at slightly older readers of seven and up. Parents who read aloud will enjoy the story - and the laughs. Priced low so more people can discover Stick Dog and his buddies.

This is in my hometown in Downey, Ca where I grew up as a kid. It’s still there! This is the longest ORIGINALLY operated McDonald's in the world! I don’t eat fast food at all, but I thought this was cool that it’s still resides there. I would have spent more time on a better photograph, but it was getting late, I had my daughter and too many cars in the parking lot to maneuver around. The 1953 McDonald's restaurant at 10207 Lakewood Blvd. (at Florence Ave.) was the third franchised McDonald's built and is the oldest surviving McDonald's. It was listed on the National Trust for Historic Preservation's 1994 list of the 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.

In the centre of Vaasa on Kauppapuistikko you'll find this little piece of modern architecture. It's housed by a Finnish hamburger franchise called Hesburger. On the left side of it is the distinguished business palace called the Hartman house. The small clock tower behind Hesburger has a "P" on it because it marks one of the entrances to the underground parking space under the Market square.
