Smile.  Wow, Carrie, you are in deep!  Gustavo said you are the Alpha
voolunteer so maybe you can get some in-house volunteer help.  Sounds like
you need it.  <grin>

Three Came Home by Agnes Newton Keith is not in the Bookshare database but
is available on amazon.com for $2.12 (and the Time reading program special
edition is available for 1 cent).  Or I can check the local used bookstore
if you like.

I just realized that I have 3 Latin books to process for one member, the
14-book Wild Card series and another 20 books in a donation from a second
member, 22 books on old-time radio I ordered from amazon.com for a third
member, and the 55 book collection I just got yesterday. I think I
over-extended myself a bit!  To chop, scan, OCR and submit all these books
will take a little while.  Don't anyone hold your breath! :-)

  I don't think I read A Town Called Alice but many
  years ago it was a Masterpiece theatre production and
  I loved it.

  Which reminds me of another wonderful book that I
  think I read as well as saw the movie--Three Came
  Home. The book is autobiographical. The movie starred
  Claudette Colbert and Sessue Hayakawa. It's a
  wonderful story of courage and survival. The family is
  imprisoned--mother and son separately from the
  father--in Japanese concentration camps for the
  duration of the war--terrible conditions but they do
  survive--and come home, as the title states. I haven't
  checked to see if it's in the collection of being
  worked on.
