[LM_NET] 1,000,000 words book promotion

[Meg Torrens <megtorrens@YAHOO.COM>]

I am trying to design a book promotion that would have students in grade 3-5 read 
one million words in a school year.  I am trying to figure out how to calculate the 
number of words. There will be a log to fill out that would ask for the title, 
author and favorite part of the book, but I am stuck as to how to calculate the 
number of words.  I would like to avoid tying the promotion to AR.  Any 
suggestions?  Thanks.
