Kiddo and everybody,
I marked my votes on your list and I've come to the conclusion that we probably need a better way. I think your suggestion of having one thread per book would work better for the actual votes. Then we could just use your list to make sure we knew what titles were under consideration. But for now, if anyone else wants to put their choices on this list it might help give a preliminary idea of where we are. And maybe it won't be as impossible to read as I fear. The only things that I marked as NO are textbooks (and picture books though I exclude those reluctantly). The only things that I marked as YES are things that I think would be suitable for the first 2 books. - Jane
