Hello Heather. I can't believe we are on at the same time. It has been so long. Bummer about your knee during ski season. I know... remind me later to rant about how I hate the way children's books do not follow a "normal" DD system... finding George was hard last week  My knee is actually healing well... I am worried about the hand however  At least I don't need a hand to run... and my swim stroke is so poor it doesn't really affect it 
George who? Curious George.... We finally found 4 early readers (never did find the actually traditional George stories). I can't wait to tell the boys we have to bring them back.
Fiction books are usually filed by the authors last name, not by DD. The DD system is used for non-fiction books and breaks it down by subject. So Curious George should have been by "Rey" for the author. I always figured the letter system was another part of the DD system. They div the children's books into different sections (Juv and I think ER - or something like that) so books by the same author can be in different locations depending on the reading level. Makes a huge college library look easy to me. It was never a big problem with just one reading child, but now with two on different levels, I'm slightly confused. Oh, and THEN... they put collections (ie Berenstein Bears or Dr Suess) on a different wall as well.... WTH????
