Dear LM_NETters:
This thread was one of the most fun in a long time. There were responses
from elementary, middle, and secondary libraries, a juvenile detention
center library, a library for blind students and others.
You will see from the list that the books range from easy-- such as Very
Hungry Caterpillar to hard-- such as Tale of Two Cities.
Some people also included their top ten non-fiction checkouts.
I did not keep count of the top of the top but Eragon, Eldest, the Cirque du
Freak series and the Captain Underpants series were often on the lists.
I tried to find the authors for each of the titles submitted. Sometimes
there was more than one book with the same title so I left the author off. I
apologize in advance for omissions and mistakes.
The list is long. Here goes.
