    Alice, I'm thrilled that my book was selected. Thanks so much! I just wanted to point out a mispelling of the title. It's Pocketful, one word, not two.

    Title is corrected, Salley. Sorry about the error. I'm getting over the flu--brain it still a little dull. Congratulations on your award!

    The kids I read to at the library LOVE Bunny Days, and also Interrupting Chicken, but now I'll have to add the other 2 PBs to my reading stack for them. :) And I love Jennifer Holm. I'm very eager to read all of the books here I missed.
