When you review a STABBBYA book try and use the VOYA Q/P scale. VOYA (Voice ofYouth Advocates) is a magazine librarians and other people of that ilk read. Ithas articles and what-not (actually, quite a bit of what-not) in it. Abouthalf of the magazine is dedicated to book reviews and this is the scale theyuse.
They rate books on Quality (the Q) and Popularity (the P). They also giveit a grade level.
So, in conclusion, if you are writing a review for me for STABBBYA, I would likeyou to:
1. Write why you like/love/hate the book.
2. A brief description
3. Score it and give it a grade level.
As always, I'm looking for your honest opinion about the books.

Here is how Iwould liked the books scored. Let me know if you have any questions.
