Hey Pam, I went to the library and came home, with like fourteen of the 
Wishbone Classics.  There is also a Wishbone Mysteries series, and I will 
attack those after I do these.

Smile.

They are novels, which are kind of easy to do as opposed to caldecotts or 
picture books.

So shall get them up.

Let me see, some of them I remember.

Man in the Iron Mask
Tom Sawyer
Ivanho
Dr. Jackel and Mr. hyde

And a whole bunch more.  Including one called "Salty dog" which is based on 
Treasure Island, smile.

I also picked up a novel from the "Hoof Beats" series, about girls and 
horses, and will be checking out that series.

Works in progress obviously.

stare up the steps - we must step up the stairs.

Hi,

The other day my son was getting frustrated because he was reading
Romeo and Juliet for school, and couldn't understand the language. I
looked on bookshare so that I could help him, hopefully that is, and I
found the neatest thing--a kids' version of Romeo and Juliette. Itt's
written in modern English and really fun to read. It's the only book
by this author on bookshare, Billy Aronson, and is one of a series of
classics written for children called the Wishbone series. If anybody
can get the others from their library and scan them, I think they'd
really be great additions to our collection. I was hoping there would
be more of Shakespeare in the series, but from what I've found on the
internet it looks like the rest are a variety of classics.

Pam
