If you try to conform to such recommendations you&#8217;ll never have time to reproduce.<\/p>\n<p>So here&#8217;s my attempt at a list, with warnings &amp; caveats &amp; qualifications, but also with confidence that if you took these resources to a desert island you&#8217;d have a rich treasure of knowledge and wisdom in storytelling and picture-making. I&#8217;d throw Beethoven recommendations into the mix but it&#8217;s not appropriate to this site, so if you care to know more, ask.
