Drat! I used to have a very nice hardcover copy of that which I am sure 
would have made a really good scan. Unfortunately, I gave it away well before I 
encountered Bookshare.

I would like to have a readable copy of "Little Big" by John Crowley added 
to the collection. There is a copy in the collection but is rated fair and 
has
missing pages, scanning errors, and is pretty much illegible. 

Here is the book's synopsis. 

Little, Big tells the epic story of Smoky Barnable -- an anonymous young 
man who meets and falls in love with Daily Alice Drinkwater, and goes to live 
with
her in Edgewood, a place not found on any map. In an impossible mansion 
full of her relatives, who all seem to have ties to another world not far away,
Smoky fathers a family and tries to learn what tale he has found himself in 
-- and how it is to end. 

It's a fairy book, but not a children's book. It's a haunting book, but no 
ghosts appear. In other words, it's a great book and should be available for
our customers to read.
