[LM_NET] Target: ELEM: Reading Through the Decades

[Jennifer Starcevic <jstarcevic@MEISOC.COM>]

Hi There!

I'm working on a project encouraging students to "Read Through the Decades" to give 
a historical context of children's books and give an alternate focus to reading by 
genre, etc.  I am hoping that when they are finished reading at least one or two 
books per decade, they will be able to see themselves as writers and have a new 
perspective on how their own publications would fit in when looking to the future.

We seem to have enough in our collection starting from 1944 and on, but I'm 
wondering if you have any books in your library "originally" published before that 
date.  This is what I have so far: (This is a copy from my original document, pls. 
ignore my call numbers--) :)
