Does anyone happen to have the link where an agent/author wrote a breakdown of each level of reading and what type of book it fit? It broke it down as picture book, early reader, middle grade, etc and then it would specify the word counts and age group?

I've seen many times and never saved it to my favorites and now that I need it I can't find it! grrr.
