[HPFGU-OTChatter] Hunchback; Disney

[Cait Hunter]

I *loved* John Bellairs- still do. Also Graeme Base (picture books- the 11th 
Hour, Animalia and one I can't remember), Jan Brett's fairy tale books- I'm 
not as big on her recent stuff, but I met her when I was in the 3rd grade 
and she's really neat- Robin McKinley (The Hero and the Crown and The Blue 
Sword) and Lloyd Alexander. And teh Colored Fairy Books and East of the Sun, 
West of the Moon and... well, a lot of stuff
