Hi Cindy, Well, I'm glad you guys were able to get those books into the collection. It's cool that Bookshare has books in Spanish for kids. Right now I teach at Wayne State University in Detroit. I'm conducting a national job search, so it's hard to say where we'll go next. BTW, you haven't said anything about your grandkids. I'm assuming they're very young since I don't remember them before. How many do you have an how old are they?
