Subject: Woodsong - Fiction/Nonfiction?
Some time ago I posted a request for the title of a picture about a little
girl that passes food to concentration camp prisoners until she is killed
herself.  Thank you to the many people who responded.  The book is "Rose
Blanche" by Roberto Innocenti.  It is published by Creative Education.
According to Amazon.com the hardback was reissued in 1996, ISBN 0152009183,
list price $17.00 and the library binding, ISBN 087191944X is available on
back order no price listed.

Someone also recommended a new picture book, "Hiding From the Nazis" by
David Adler, based on the true story of Lore Baer, a child who is listed on
the Wiesenthal Center's page about child victims of the Holocaust
http://www.wiesenthal.com/children/  and the 208 page bio of children's
author/illustrator Anita Lobel, "No Pretty Pictures".

Hi everyone,

        I hope you can answer a question for me. My library assistant just
brought this to my attention. In our library several copies of the book
Woodsong are shelved in the nonfiction section of the library with the
dewey nomber 796.5 (Outdoor Life). However, several other copies are
also shelved in the fiction section. I looked at the card catalogs of
two local public  libraries and they have it in th fiction section. I
also looked at the book and read that it is a true story of how Gary
Paulsen travels with his sled dogs.

        How do the rest of you handle the shelving of this book? I' like to
keep it in nonfiction, but am afraid it won't circulate as well as it
would if it were in the fiction section.

        If this question was posted before on LM_NET, I apologize.

        Thanks for your help!
