Carrie,
Anastasia wanted a teacher recommended-reading list
and I forgot to look in my old files and send her one.
Can you send her what you have? In the meantime, I'll
see if I can find mine. I had two from years ago, one
that a teacher posted and one that I think Marissa had
from teachers. I'd printed it out and in those days
was scanning books from it. I've trashed the printed
list but I'll see if I can still find the computer
one--only I haven't checked it against the collection
in years.
I'll take some of the BSOs if I have time after I
finish two books that have to be done first. smile
