Hope you enjoy it! I agree about the list, maybe will start one? Amazing what we've been reading, and I appreciate the authors who are writing the stories.

I'll get to it in the next few weeks.<br />I think we need to start a strong American women list. So many picture book biographies have featured them!Michele Knotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05087579707297009719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-49897714669638339952015-07-15T21:11:33.038-06:002015-07-15T21:11:33.038-06:00How funny, I was just commenting on your post, Ear...How funny, I was just commenting on your post, Earl! What a great question! I hope that authors will keep discovering amazing people that have rarely been written about. Although in my search, I did find several adult bios of Belva. I just had never heard of her!

I enjoy and am inspired by those who fight for what's right, rather than what has always been believed.

Think "Templeton". Maybe that will help? My class raised white rats for a few years & I became fonder of them then. They didn't run away as much as gerbils do!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-85923767929732499352015-07-15T10:50:23.987-06:002015-07-15T10:50:23.987-06:00Great theme Linda.

I am particularly interested in reading Dirty Rats - well actually not really because I so despise rats - which is all the more reason to read this. So let's say - I am particularly motivated to read this title!Carrie Gelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08416480940951200461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319624163132382197.post-28063682792415621142015-07-15T07:52:01.658-06:002015-07-15T07:52:01.658-06:00All of them are from our library Carol, & I...All of them are from our library Carol, & I'm returning them today, so request if you like. The chicken book is so simple, but filled with info. I don't want to care for chickens either, but several friends have them & it's fun to hear their stories!

Once again, I haven't read ANY of these and all four of them look great! I'm starting with the chicken one, because several of my neighbors have chickens and I find them minorly interesting (but I'm not getting one more thing to take care of)!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13294455230627182656noreply@blogger.com
