Complex While loop and For loop logic help

Hi,

I've a file called list and it has several choices like:

sprint
story
theme

Each of the choices in list can be further sub-divided, ie: Sprint can be divided into:

A
B
C
D

I want help in script where user is given a choice from a list, and they select one of them. Once a choice is selected, user should be presented with its associated sub-choices and should either pick them or reject them. This loop should continue until all the choices and their associated sub-choices have been either accepted or rejected.

I am writing this in bourne shell. Any help would be appreciated.
