ELEM: Bluebonnet List for 1996 -97 (fwd)

[Diane Durbin <dianed@TENET.EDU>]

I wrote in the discussion on Holiday Reading that I was reading the new
(1996-97) Texas Bluebonnet List over my vacation.  Several people have
asked me to forward it.  I think it may have been posted previously.
However, because quite a few people have asked for it and because it
might be of interest to anyone looking for recent good books for
elementary students, I'm posting it again.


                ==Bluebonnet Master List 1996-97==              12/12/96

The following titles have been named to the Bluebonnet Master list for
the 1996-97 school year.  Students in grades 3-6 will read from the
1996-1997 TBA master list during the spring of 1996 and the fall of
1996.  Voting to select the winner of the 1997 Bluebonnet Award will be
held in January 1997.
