Welcome to My Online Bookshelf!

Classic Bookshelf has some great java scripts that allow one to have a book on their web page, so I am putting a few favorites here for my daughters. I will try to include non java versions as soon as I can so those of you who have no java plug-ins in your browser can still enjoy.

So far the only one I have an online version for is Andersen's Fairy Tales by Hans Christian Andersen, and Aesop's Fables is currently in progress.

Once Aesop is done I will begin online versions of the following works by E. Nesbit, which currently can be read in java only.

• Beautiful Stories from Shakespeare
• Five Children and It
• Many Voices
• The Phoenix and the Carpet
• The Railway Children
• The Rainbow And The Rose
• The Story of the Amulet
• The Story of the Treasure Seekers
• The Wouldbegoods
