Book lover's brilliance!

Here's a fabulous little program: release books "into the wild" for people to read, comment about on a website, then re-release for more people to do the same. More information is at www.bookcrossing.com.

So, I'm plotting what to seek out in used book stores in order to release. So far I'm thinking:

Memory and Dream by Charles de Lint
Ana Historic by Daphne Marlett
Ravensong by Lee Maracle

These are some great Canadian authors.

Also, maybe some of my childhood favourites: Heidi, The Wizard of Oz, Beautiful Joe, Waterbabies (though I'd be hard pressed to release that one... I don't own a copy). Oh, and some of the original books that later got "Disneyfied" -- 101 Dalmatians, Mary Poppins, etc.

Oh, and something by James Harriot. I loved All Creatures Great and Small from the first time I read it in grade 5, and I read just about everything James Harriot ever wrote. I still own a bunch of them, in fact.

Ah, must get to a used bookstore soon! Anyone have any other ideas on books that need to get out into the wild and read?
