2010 Bibliophilic Books Challenge

I love reading books about books!

For all of 2010. I'll be trying for the bookworm level (Bookworm: Read three books) but will be reading some picture books about books and reading too which will be extra, they won't count towards those three.

Books Read for Challenge:
The Book of Knowledge by David Michael Slater


Picture Books Already Read:
Born to Read by Judy Sierra
That Book Woman by Heather Henson
Too Many Books by Gilles Tibo
Miss Malarkey Leaves No Reader Behind


EDIT Jan 23/2010 - I'm adding a list of possibilities. I don't own ANY of these, they are all ones I found recommended by other bloggers
