Hello, Deborah:
Thank you. The Picnic Basket is a wonderful idea. I am near the launch of a children's book club and will encourage our members to check out your site. And I hope to see some of my books on your site one day. Happy reading!

www.thepicnic-basket.com looks like a fab idea. We've recently launched our graphic novel range of classic literature and Shakespeare titles in the US and it's always nice to receive positive reviews from both teachers and students.
