Willow Smith, as you may know, is Will Smith's daughter. She has appeared in movies, most notably in Kit Kittredge: An American Girl. She's also something of a punked out Rihanna-esque fashionista. Her latest foray is into the world of music, and she's already dropped her single, Whip My Hair.

Alright, so if you've ever read Mark Z. Danielewski's book 'House of Leaves,' you have my respect and admiration. Structurally speaking, it is a difficult book to get through, although the rewards are well worth it, I think. The best way to sum it up is that it is the ultimate haunted house story, in that the house is the ghost . . . and so much more. Anyway, Danielewski reported in an interview on fellow writer Chuck Pahlaniuk's blog that he had completed a 27 volume [!] opus about a 12-year-old girl who finds a kitten. Whoa. Something tells me it's going to be about a LOT more than that, but so far we're off to a good start.

Boys Don't Cry director Kim Pierce has taken on an interesting project: 'Wicked Lovely,' based on a YA novel of the same name, is about a teen girl who can see fairies, only some of the fairies are, well, not very nice. ;-)

Then there is 'Never Let Me Go,' about kids who grow up together in a special boarding school in an alternate reality where they are being raised for . . . something. Izzy Meikle-Small and Ella Purnell play younger versions of two of the children.

Check out photographer T. Greenwood's ongoing project to capture the daily lives of her two stunningly beautiful, blue-eyed, curly-haired daughters in the Ephemera Files. My favorites are a series of shots of the youngest girl napping on the couch--the various contortions the girl seems to find herself in are often sweet, sometimes amusing and always compelling. No nudity here, but you know the photographer is awesome when she lists among the links to her own favorite photographer the likes of Jock Sturges and Sally Mann.

Finally, there's a wonderful resource for fans of historical art featuring children, called, appropriately enough, I Am a Child.
