FROM VIEW THE LIST
Our View the List page shows you our All-Time Great Children's Books. Beneath each book, there are two orange buttons. If you click the "My Books" button, a My Books window will appear.
FROM ANY BOOK PAGE
A "My Books" window appears on every book page. It is at the upper right corner. The tabs are visible, along with a checkbox for each. If you have checked a box previously, when you come back to that book page the next time, the boxes will still be checked.
At the instant when you click a checkbox, a tiny spinning graphic appears briefly. That is us recording your selection right then, with no need for you to click a "save" button.
FROM ANY PAGE
You can get to "My Books" from any page. There is a link at the top, next to "My Account:"
