Hi Valerie!

Sounds like a great idea to submit it. Keep those picture descriptions coming, please. I love them. I have been keeping track of the described children's books that have been discussed since I joined the list.

Yesterday afternoon, I was in the mood for some light reading, so I read Sisters Of Scituate Light by Stephen Krensky, and enjoyed it. Those girls were able to think on their feet. The descriptions really brought the book alive. I lived in Boston when I was very small, and Massachusetts is my home state.

I also read Auntie Claus by Elise Primavera. These descriptions were great too. Was it you, Jamie or you Valerie who described? That was well done, and the story was cute. I wish I had books like this to read when I was a kid.

Sounds like a great candidate for submitting a BSO (Better Scan Of) If you are going to add picture descriptions and fix problems, no matter what the quality rating of the previous submission.

I have a question. We had some children's books given to us and before I gave them to a friend for her kids, I checked what was in the collection. One of the titles (Silly Sally) was, but had a different ISBN. I opened it to see if it was the same text, since they should be the same just different formats (thus the different ISBN's). I noticed that the copy of Silly Sally in the collection, scanned and proofread by Trans Access, is missing some text (missing some repetitive lines).

My questions are how do I report missing text, and since mine is a different ISBN, should I submit it? It is just a small children's board book and I would probably do some enhanced picture descriptions if I did.

Thanks!

Valerie
