Shelley,
Robin is offline this weekend but several of us have embarrassingly revealing
timestamps on our correspondence on this whole publisher thing this weekend.
(Bets on who will fall asleep at their desks on Monday?)
My strong assumption is that WB has been approached. Let me check this and
Voyager/Voyageur on Monday. ok?

hey Scott,
Has World Book been approached at all. They have some awesome educationa
things I don't mind slogging through them, though smile this would
definitely be a case where PQ might be a blessing.
Also is
Voyager
And Voyageur Press the same thing?
As the latter has a huge selection of books that I would love to see in the
collection.
This publisher thing is very murky sometimes.
