Madeline,
Could see if this volunteer could possibly take the middle one in the trilogy
to? My concern is over something that I noticed in several cases here and with
the libraries Bard website. All of the books except for one and up in the
collection at one point or another and it seems really strange and awkward when
reading to be reading book one and then go back to the collection only to find
that what do you know book 2 is missing so you have to move on to the third
book and you miss half the storyline. Unfortunately this is common with the
libraries they need to move all of their cassette books over to digital format
as well as with bookshare so it's not just something that happens here.
Thanks,
Daria Radford
