[LM_NET] A child's view of LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE

[Debbie Reese <debreese@UIUC.EDU>]

Hello!

I spent a couple of hours yesterday working on
the blog links. I added a new section called
"Of Special Interest" where I link to various
posts that didn't quite fit in categories like
"books reviews" or "first person stories."
There, you'll find Beverly Slapin's terrific
"How to Write..." essays, and other posts
I think people might be interested in reading.

Below are posts I created this past week on
American Indians in Children's Literature.
Instructions for finding it are below, just
above my signature line. Please forward
this email to others who work with children
and books, and have a terrific week!
