[mccheyne <mccheyne@ZOOM-DSL.COM>]

Here is my hit of picture books with a mature theme - suitable for use with middle 
and high school.  I put it in a chart so I could sort the list.  I hope the 
formatting will be ok when I send the message.  If not, I apologize in advance.   
Thank you to everyone who contributed! :)
