http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/...It would seem that there are two or three Victor Herberts; one writes children's, another one or two (I'm not sure which) writes about nutrition and critical thinking.
Thanks for posting Heather I will sort Victor out. The best place to post this request is in the "This author needs help" topic. The please disambig topic is used by the librarians to document who/how we have disambiguated the authors http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/6...
