Great list, and a very deserving charity (one I'm sure far too many people overlook). I think people with fully stocked libraries at their disposal take books for granted all too often.

I think it's great that you've named this excellent charity as the beneficiary if (when? ;-) you win the Chronicle prize) and I've gotten some great book ideas from your terrific list!

I had no idea there were Ivy and Bean paper dolls! Wishlisting them for my daughter, feel free to enter the giveaway on my blog as well!
Oh, there are some books on your list that my grandkiddies would love. What fun they would have!
So I wish the both of us good luck on this thing.
Thank you Chronicle books ;D

What fun this is to see everyone's lists. You have some great finds here and a very appropriate charity.
Good luck!
You've picked a great charity too!There's a couple of books on your list that I wanted to put on mine (but I ran out of $) like "All my friends are daea" and "Thirteen o'clock). Good Luck!!
Nice variety of books. Chronicle has a such a great selection.
I would love your books, too! My library is not nearly what I would like it to be. Thanks for commenting on my post and good luck!
