Hi, Shelley. Yeah, I know, and if you're still willing to tackle them, given that, I know plenty of people will be grateful. I like reading about any kinds of animals, so my own personal opinion would be to just grab whatever strikes your fancy so it can at least be something you enjoy, too. Take care.

But I will try to do what I can. I would like some direction though. Should I go after amphibians and reptiles, stay with mammals, go onto birds, attack fish, we have a huge aquarium section, or just pick and strike in that section of the library? Smile, I like reading about almost anything, particularly ocean animals and dogs and horses are my favorites, but I am willing to explore other topics. Smile. Shelley L.
