If, because of prior commitments, you can't take this year off to go bumming around the globe, sleeping in youth hostels, going a long time between showers, and eating suspect food from street vendors, we bring you the next best thing: Mo Willem's You Can Never Find a Rickshaw When It Monsoons: The World on One Cartoon a Day. Since, where we live, it's been monsooning like crazy lately,
we're feeling like it's time for another sneak peek.

we named a burger in their honor
they sat down for our pop quiz interview, bared their souls, and designed their own burgers for our honorary menu:
The E Lockhart Burger: a well-spiced veggie burger, topped with blue cheese, lettuce, dijon mustard and extra pickles. ("I am a vegetarian, Bookburger. Like Roo in The Boyfriend List.")
read the interview
The Ally Carter Burger: mayo and mustard. And lettuce, pickles, and swiss cheese. ("Okay now I’m hungry. This is all your fault!")
read the interview
The Kieran Scott Burger: American cheese, bacon, lots of ketchup, red onions and lettuce. ("Let no pickle touch my burger lest you wish to feel the full scope of my wrath!")
read the interview
The Rachel Cohn Burger: turkey burger ("preferably from Barney's in San Francisco") with red onion, tomato and mayo. ("Don't forget the fries.")
read the interviewThe Mo Willems Burger: Fresh and well-grounded ("like my daughter") with nothing on it.("I am deathly afraid of most condiments.")
read the interview
The Melissa Kantor Burger: Melted blue cheese with lettuce, tomatoes, and onions on the side. ("with a complimentary pack of 'Trident Blue' so you could eat all the onions").
read the interviewThe Lisi Harrison Burger: A burger topped with Mac & Cheese and ketchup. ("Call it the Mac & Cheeseburger.")
read the interviewThe Laura Dave Burger: Cheddar cheese and barbeque sauce. Extra pickles. ("and please...hold the onions!")
read the interviewThe Stephenie Meyer Burger: another completely plain burger. ("I'm anti-condiments.")
read the interviewThe Janet Fitch Burger: a burger with a hole in the middle, stuffed with something dark, like olives. ("There's always a certain darkness at the center of my books.")
read the interviewThe Tanya Lee Stone Burger: medium rare with cheddar cheese, barbecue sauce, and an onion ring. "Overdone thick-cut fries on the side, please."
read the interviewThe Maureen Johnson Burger: veggie burger with roasted red pepper, avocado, and Monterrey Jack. Pickles on the side. "And all the condiments in the house.
read the interviewThe Alice Hoffman Burger: "It should have everything, but hold the burger. (Unless it's soy)."
read the interview
This is a really fat book..i was amazed when I saw it in the stores. I did a trip like that a few years ago, and this brought back so many memories. Great stuff.

Agreed. Some folks use push/pull, and some of this comes from the "permission markeitng" concept from Seth Godin from about a decade ago. I also agree with you that social media and the ability to have a conversation (like this one) change the game. So maybe we need a new term?
You have some good points, and the best one might be that I prefer to debate less and do more marketing! If you are ever in Boston, look me up and I'll give you a tour of the HubSpot offices and buy you a coffee.
