Lissi,

The last set of Marissa's Lists (June 22) shows it out for validation.  If
it's not on the Step 1 list or in the collection, then Gustavo probably
hasn't gotten around to approving it yet, which is not surprising since he's
been focusing on Spanish books lately and has done few English approvals due
to the admin queue being low.

Dear Cindy,

The book was

To School Through the Fields An Irish Country Childhood
by Alice Taylor.

I've checked some of the lists for it, but haven't found it.

Thanks for asking.

Always with love,

Lissi
