The Exquisite Corpse Adventure
The Library of Congress presents the "Exquisite Corpse Adventure." It works this way: Jon Scieszka has written the first episode. He has passed it on to a cast of celebrated writers and illustrators, who must eventually bring the story to an end. Every two weeks, there will be a new episode and a new illustration. The story will conclude in 2010.
