Beyond storytime books

Hi all!

I know a couple titles were changed for the storytime portion. I have a opertunity to purchase a lot with the guide and "boys interest" book set. But it is before the two titles were changed. I would like to order the two titles currently suggested on the website. The lady said they are scheduled into the guide? Is there a way to get the updated page numbers for the current books? Hope this makes sense. It is the 2006 guide. That is the most current right? I'm not sure when the story time books were changed

Thank you!

In Beyond (and Bigger), the storytime books are specifically scheduled. Instead, Carrie lets you pick a book for each genre. There are the three that are in the HOD packages (classic, boy and girl) and normally 1-2 other suggestions in the appendix. You pick on book per genre, and then divide the book into 20 day of reading (either by page number or chapters). Each day in the guide, there are instructions for discussion/activities, but they aren't specific to any one book.

Does that make sense?

re: bolded ... For clarification, I think StephanieU meant to say "are NOT specifically scheduled"
