Joanne,

Thanks for being the middleman on this.  I found 3 really good sources.
This is my favorite: 

http://www.delta.edu/drsnyder/CommonThemesInLiterature.html 

and I also like these:

http://changingminds.org/disciplines/storytelling/plots/friedman_plots/f
riedman_plots.htm 

http://monomyth.org/?page_id=32  (Joseph Campbell's monomyth page)

I also learned about this on my search and fell I can use this in my
lessons as well.

http://www3.cerritos.edu/fquaas/resources/English102/HeroNotes.htm 

In fact, Suzanne Collins DID cite Joseph Campbell as her source of info,
so I'm going to dig into that source a little further as well.  Thanks
to all who shared!
