I would like to know if you feel they are helpful to your libraries. Thank You Leah Goldschmitt ------------------------------ From: REALITY115@aol.com To: Aclasper@aol.com, pubyac@prairienet.org Subject: Re: Easy Books Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2003 23:32:48 CST It is easier for the patrons, but probably saves the pages time in shelving, and the librarians time since you don't have as many places to look for a particular title. ------------------------------ From: Kathy Ward <ktward@gci.net> To: pubyac@prairienet.org Subject: Stumper solved! MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2003 23:33:10 CST Many thanks to Cathy Burnsed and Marcia Colson, who suggested "Hide and Sneak" by Michael Kusugak and "Dreamstones" by Maxine Trottier, respectively. "Dreamstones" is the book I was searching for about the boy who gets separated from his parents (really just his dad) and ends up sleeping at the foot of an inuksuk... Can't wait to get my hands on it again! Once again, PUBYAC is great! Kathy Ward Juneau Public Libraries Juneau, Alaska -- "There are many horrible sights in the multiverse. Somehow, though, to a soul attuned to the subtle rhythms of a library, there are few worse sights than a hole where a book ought to be." - Terry Pratchett ------------------------------ From: Vicki Shroyer <vickis@yellowbananas.com> To: pubyac@prairienet.org Subject: The Little Yellow Chick Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v552) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Date: Sun, 7 Dec 2003 23:33:29 CST I am trying to find the book, "The Little Yellow Chick" in big book, does anyone now where I can find it. It is a wonderful story to do with "The LIttle Red Hen". Vicki Shroyer Elem.

Has this been a good thing for your library? Thanks, Chrissy Johnson Lebanon Public Library Lebanon IN I recently had a sales person come into our school library and brought info on Leap Frog for me to look at. He claims it is becoming a real big thing in schools. We are getting ready to do requistions and I was wondering also if libraries should think about it or not. Please let me know as well. My email is vickis@yellowbananas.com or you can can email through PUBYAC.
