| Kids books are my specialty. I have
hundreds of picture books, folk and fairy tales, nursery rhymes, history,
natural history, juvenile novels, yup, you name it. Most of my books
are out-of-print (you know, the ones you remember reading when you were
a kid). Some are rare collectible treasures, others are secondhand
copies at half the current retail price. All of my books are in very
good to fine condition. I also carry
select new books and reprints of old classics. |

Classics
These are the books you remember from when you were
a child, and which are ready for yet another generation, and another generation,
and another...

Gems
Perennial favorites and books just shy of the "classic"
category (although that is entirely subjective); one you may not know may
be your best friend's all-time favorite!

Oldies
Many of these are now collectible, but that doesn't
mean they aren't appropriate for today's kids. Take the time to introduce
your youngsters to the best of yesterday's books.

New
Favorites
Recent books that are worthy of classic status, but
simply haven't been around that long yet, as well as some authors and illustrators
who are already famous.

Caldecott
This prestigious award began in 1938 and has
been regarded as a standard of excellence ever since. Isn't your
grandchild worth the best?

Collectible
Titles will vary, but all are promised to be nice early editions (valued
for their paper quality and color) in fine condition with dust jackets.
A great way to start a collection.
Book Lover's Guild |
Feminist

role models, and encouraging equality for all races, creeds, and kinds
of people. Perfect for any child finding her place in the world.

Onomatopoeia
For babies, learning to make recognizable noises (like a dog bark or a
car motor) are important building blocks of language. They also make
reading a book lots of fun!
Bookworm Society |
Wordless
Make up your own stories to accompany this collection! Great imaginative,
interactive fun.
Bookworm Society |
Animals
Kids have a great natual affinity for animals. This selection features
groupings by animals (dinosaurs, pigs, horses, dogs, cats) or a mixed bag,
both fiction and factual.

Arts
Introduce your niece to the art of Picasso and Mary Cassatt or to the music
of Stephen Foster and Tchaikovsky. It's never too early to build
an appreciation of the arts.

Fairy
Tales
Every culture has a wealth of stories and legends that are a part of
its cultural heritage. Choose Iinternational Tales or Classic Fairy
Tales.

Pop-Ups
Books become three-dimensional works of art with pop-ups! Enjoy hours
of fascination with these movable masterpieces.

Remainders
Why remainders? Because you can be fairly certain that Junior doesn't
have it already, and because you can get a brand new hardback for
the price of a paperback. Besides, some of these are really great!
