[aisle] Book madness

[Kori Wentzloff]

My aide, student helpers and I just try to identify some popular books that
year.  We always pick a handful of Caudills and try not to pick books that
have won in our competition in recent years. We used to do a full 60+
bracket like the NCAA, but after a couple years realized it was too much.
We switched to 16 books last year and it was fantastic.  We even had a huge
display on our windows that really increased interest in the competition
(see photo below!).

Good luck Kathy!  It's a lot of fun :)
