Book Site -WOW!

[Sarah Lantz <sarahl@CCPL.CARR.LIB.MD.US>]

WOW!  The following site was mentioned in 12/15/96 *Booklist*, p. 719.  It's
from Bantam, Doubleday, Dell. You won't believe your eyes when you see all
it has to offer! It will take a while to see all it has to offer so try to
investigate this site during your winter break. What fun! (Grade 1-10)
