Since Chelsey mentioned it...We are looking at doing Mama's Babies by Gary Crew for the next book discussion.

"First published in Australia by Thomas C. Lothian"--T.p. verso. This novel based on the cases of three murderous "baby farmers" of the 1890s, a nine-year-old girl suspects that her "Mama" is not truly her mother and that the infants she has taken in lately have not died of natural causes.

Let me know what you guys think...Oscar and Chelsey have already given good vibes for it so I think we will try it unless someone has any huge objections!!

By the way this will be our last actual discussion for this school year. We are considering some different things for the summer, so if any of you have some ideas let us know... Some things we thought of were creating a list of books for discussion both non-fiction and fiction and hopefully some of us would read the same ones or if one of us read a really good one we could recommend it to the rest of us. This might also appeal to others who do not currently participate. So stop with some ideas or post them here. We want them!!

Have a great weekend!
