It was not she -- her name was Aliyah (not sure how that's spelled), and she was more than a year older than yours -- but she was wearing a tee shirt with multiple covers of Pippi Longstocking on it :) I was somewhat sure I spied your offspring today at the Union Square Playground.

For some reason it doesn't show up when you click the Tab. It exists all right. You can find it here: http://blogs.slj.com/afuse8production/2012/05/16/top-100-picture-books-91-the-stinky-cheese-man-and-other-fairy-stupid-tales-by-jon-scieszka-illustrated-by-lane-smith/. Weird, though. I can't quite figure out what I'd need to do to fix the problem. Well that’s strange. For some reason it doesn’t show up when you click the Tab. It exists all right.

I've been keeping my own lists as your awesome posts go out and it's driving my obsessive personality nuts that I can't find that entry! Am I just going crazy or is #91 in the picture books missing?

I was a huge fan of the first countdowns but I think this time (knowing you have a little sprog now) you've impressed me even more. Thank you! You've earned a day off.

I totally understand that it is necessary to catch ones breath. I'm delighted by all the new blood this time around, although I assume there will be fewer surprises in the last half. I've added quite a few books to my orders that have been lacking in my library. Although I’ve apparently been having way too much fun following all your efforts here.
