Subject: Food in children's/ young adult literature
Hi everyone:
I am new to this list, so hello to all. Hopefully someone can help me. I am
trying to compile a list of children's and young adult literature that
consists of books that include foods and cooking. I am most interested in
books that are historical or include regional foods and cooking. For example,
The Midwife's Apprentice. If anyone has any ideas or had a particular book
that sicks out in their mind, please let me know, as I'm having a hard time
with this. Also, if you'd like a copy of the list when I'm finished email me
privately and I'll forward you one. Thank you for your help,

Subject: stumper: nobody home
to all those stumper enthusiasts, a patron came in to find the complete
version of a poem she only remembers this much of: "when there's nobody
home at the top of your dome, your head's not a head it's a nut." the
first lines are very sketchy to her, but have something in them about a
bat or bats in your belfry and perhaps the word flutt. to give you a
bit of background...the woman looked to be in her 50's and she remembers
her grandmother reciting this little ditty. i would guess it is an old
timer. we have thought it might sound like ogden nash or edgar guest?
we have looked unsuccessfully in granger's, index to poetry for children and
young
people, and current bartlett's two. i'm afraid we don't have much to
go on, which makes it difficult to check reference sources. hopefully
someone out there knows the ditty. thanks in advance,
rhasting@vlc.lib.mi.us

Subject: Stumper
A patron wants a book:
where two children come home and say to their mother Who Me? I'm too little.
and I don't know.
Does this ring any bells out there??

Subject: Re: stumper Flying Grandmother
Hi Folks,
We are looking for a book a patron read several years back. All she
remembers is that the story was about a girl who discovers that her
grandmother can fly. She goes on a flying adventure with her.
Thanks for your help...oh yeah...nice pictures.

Subject: Clothes storytime craft
Hello to all -
I have LOTS of good books about clothes (FROGGY GETS DRESEED, HUGGLY GETS
DRESSED, STOP THOSE PANTS, BEAR GETS DRESSED, HOW DO I PUT IT ON?, etc.) but
I need a quick craft to do with my 2-5 year old group.
PLEASE nothing too complex since I'm still recovering from a brutal root
canal and don't have a lot of energy...
TIA!
