Hee, how cool is it to be the person telling ME what to read, in a long list of me telling other people what to read!
I didn't care for the original 101 Dalmations book. Too many characters with confusing names (Pongo and MRS Pongo? TWO Nannys? WHY?! I think Disney did the story a favor, condensing the characters), couldn't get into it. But then, I also notoriously don't like dog books, so that could be part of the problem. But I'll keep my eyes open for the others. And I KNOW I can get hold of the rest of the Melendy books sometime....
Glad you are inspired by the list! Glad also that you loved Mockingbird!
