I apologize to anyone who has received this message multiple times--it appears my email hates me today (or maybe your email hates me?)

I had just begun typing my plea to have The Changeover back in print when I saw the other enthusiasts' emails. Mahy writes such wonderfully atmospheric books and that one is a masterful teen romance at the same time. The main character, Laura, wrestles with her sense of individuality, responsibility, and privacy in such intelligent but believable ways. I just love it.

Also, I would give a great deal to have The Great Blueness by Arnold Lobel returned to the shelves. With charming, rhythmic language and spectacular, detailed illustrations, I still can't believe it went out of print.
