Sorry it has taken me so long to post this hit. Everything was going along
fine until I had to break the tie so that we had a list of 100 books. Not
to bore you with all the details, just suffice it to say that many things
happened and I did not get the list down to a top 100. The number in front
of the book indicated the number of votes it got. I will send the list of
books that got only one or two votes in a separate e-mail. I was also
trying to list author and illustrator – that didn’t get finished either.
Anyway, here is the list:
