The lines were long this morning...but oh so worth it!
I got there a couple hours after it opened, so I didn't find the usual clothing scores...aside from an awesome dress that is just perfect (pic later of it actually on me) and a tie for Paul. So, naturally, I headed to the book section.
THE BOOK SECTION!
I don't usually have the patience to look through every stinking book they have, but with having my own classroom a very real possibility next year and the lines not getting any smaller, I decided to give it a whirl. And I'm so glad I did! 23 books, 21 of them various children's books, for a mere $7.35. Gotta love that!
The books include 3 Judy Moody books, a boxcar children, some Disney I Spy books, a few nonfiction books about rainforests and the Pony Express, a very boy book (Knights of the Kitchen Table) by John Scieszka, some Winnie the pooh books, etc...plus Trumpet of the Swan and Summer of the Swans, two books I remember loving as a kid. :) And 2nd copies of The Legend of the Bluebonnet (DePaola is a fave of mine even now) and The Paper Bag Princess. Lots of goodies to add to the collection! I also got young reader novels of HighSchool Musical 1 and 3 and a ballet book for Katherine, the girl I am a para for. I will most definitely be checking their kids books out every month from now on! You can't really beat $0.35 a pop!
