Re: hit: elem books made into movies

Hi Netters,

What with the interest recently in trivia contests, I thought some of you
might be interested in this. Last year the 5 elementary schools in
Waterford set up this contest in conjunction with the Waterford Public
Library for School Library Media Month.  (There were visual clues set up
at the public library, with  the reponse sheets available at the schools).


Have fun with this, and I will try to find the answer sheet!!! In the
meantime, if you have any questions about the visuals (i.e. a picture of
the Eiffel tower, a map of Kansas, game pieces, a wax peach, gummy worms,
etc), I will be glad to look them up for you.
