[Molly Pearson <res1bcnm@VERIZON.NET>]

Hello again everyone,
I am receiving wonderful suggestions for picture books, keep them =
coming. I just noticed that on my new computer I had a signature file =
and assumed it was going with each message, but it wasn't. I hadn't =
checked the automatically send with each message box.  My apologies--I =
should have checked! So, here is the message again with a proper =
signature. =20

Hi All,
I am in the process of working on a book which includes an extensive =
bibliogaphy of books to use with grades 4 through high school.  I have =
many titles in mind, but want to be sure I evaluate as many as possible, =
especially newer books.  I would love to hear your suggestions!  What =
are your favorite books to use with older students? Here are a few of =
the topics/areas I am investigating.
    History--in any era--those books that touch the heart and make =
history seem more real to the reader.
    Humor--those picture books where the humor is advanced and more =
appreciated by an older reader.
    Science
    Social Issues
    Biography (the new When Marion Sang is a great example)
    Poetry
and any others that leap to mind. =20
I am monitoring the list from the archives right now, so please respond =
to me off list.  I will post a hit for everyone.

Thanks
