A fresh week means it’s time for a fresh batch of new links. Try not to cry about the fact that the adorable BB-8 Rubik’s Cube is only available in Japan, but instead indulge on all the carrot cake related snacks we’ve found for you. Learn about the start of Parnassus Books and the start of Maray the cat’s career as a museum employee. Most importantly, make sure to have the best week possible.

In honor of National Library Week we thought we’d help dispel the pop culture stereotype of librarians being elderly women shushing kids. Instead, we've rounded up some awesome, real-life, librarians and library workers to follow on Twitter. Hopefully in the process we’ll also convert Leslie Knope into loving libraries like we do.

Since it is National Siblings’ day, we at Quirk thought it would be fun to take a look at some of the siblings who have provided us with hours upon hours in entertainment.

Inspired by the fox in The Little Prince, we’re taking a look at our favorite vulpine creatures in literature.

This month sees the U.S. theatrical release of The Little Prince, a new 3D stop-motion animated version of the classic French children’s book by Antoine De Saint-Exupery. With stunning watercolor illustrations throughout, The Little Prince has inspired multitudes of tattoos in tribute. Here we've rounded up the very best of unusual, whimsical Petit Prince body art that wonderfully captures the spirit of the original.
