Hi Shelagh,
I am really worried about WHO is going to do the annual book panel for Christmas book buying! I am really going to miss Michele Landsberg, the Toronto Library guy etc - for both their recommendations for children's books as well as WHAT will I get for my father-in-law?! I hope you are still going to carry on the tradition - I think I have been listening to this (and everything else on CBC) since Gwsoski? started it.
Thanks Shelagh!
