I have just found a fabulous blog if you want to check out some great books for children and young adults.
The first post I read is a treasure trove, a gold mine, a veritable feast. It's entitled 200 Cool Girls in Children's Literature. Thank you Jen Robinson!
Thanks so much for the link, Alison! And thanks for your kind words. Visitors to my blog get a lot of the credit for putting together the list of "cool girls" - I'm happy that you think that it's useful!

Excellent! We'll be making extensive use of that!

Hi Little Willow, Nice to see you here and thank you. Your sites/links look interesting, shall spend some more time soon cruising around them. Yep, I was really excited to have found Jen's page,and shall refer to it quite a lot from here in.
Jen, you are most welcome!
Healthpsych, You have a daughter as well- isn't this great to find? My girl has already named 2 books from the list she's interested in.

The cool girls list would definitely not be the same without Little Willow's contributions! Cheers!
