[LM_NET] HIT: Children's Dewey Books

[Toni Buzzeo <tonibuzzeo@TONIBUZZEO.COM>]

ORIGINAL REQUEST:

I've searched the archives unsuccessfully, though I do believe I 
remember a HIT from 2008, so perhaps my search terms are faulty.  At 
any rate, I am looking for a list of CHILDREN'S books about the Dewey 
Decimal System.  I'd like to include a bibliography of other titles 
in the Library Lessons for THE GREAT DEWEY HUNT: A MRS. SKORUPSKI 
STORY (which will be out in March from Upstart).

REPLIES:

1. Several people mentioned:
Fowler, Allan. Dewey Decimal System.  Children's Press, 1996.
What Marion Taught Willis by Berg Hopkins, Jackie Mims.
The Shelf Elf Helps Out.  UpstartBooks, 2006.

2. Also:
A dated one but I still love is the Meg Mackintosh's the mystery in 
the locked  library -Lucinda Landon  (this is only dated because it 
was early in the automation world)

Mr. Crumb's Secret- Phyllis J. Perry

Actually these are more about different resources in the library, but 
they both talk about Dewey.

3. And here's a website of resources:

Thanks,
Toni
