[LM_NET] HIT: Book titles needed

["Cricket@bellsouth.net" <librarygoddess@BELLSOUTH.NET>]

My original post was:
A teacher in my school works for a children's advocacy group that  
> places children who have had to be removed from the home for  
> various reasons. The group wants to put together backpacks to give  
> to this children with some necessary and comfort items to help  
> them. One of the things they are wanting to include in the  
> backpacks is a paperback book that would either speak to their  
> situation or make them laugh and feel better about having to leave  
> their home and family.

Here's a list of what I got:
For older kids:
Ruber Holler - Sharon Creed
Pictures of Hollis Woods - Patricia Reilly Giff
The Pinballs - Besty Byars
joke books

For younger kids:
The Kissin Hand - Audrey Penn
