[LM_NET] HIT: Character-Driven Picture Book Series

[Toni Buzzeo <tonibuzzeo@TONIBUZZEO.COM>]

ORIGINAL TARGET: I'm putting together a list of SERIES picture books that
are character driven (that is, the series exists because of the appeal and
quirks of the
character).  Of course, I'm pretty fond of my Adventure Annie series, but
what others come to mind that are still adding new titles each year, such as
Skippyjon Jones, Ladybug Girl, and Fancy Nancy?  Picture books only, please!
