Kids books are my specialty. I have hundreds of juvenile novels,
series books, chapter books, biographies, picture books, 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,
some are secondhand copies of popular books at half the price. All
of my books are in very good to fine condition.
I also carry the best of the new books and reprints of old classics. |
Some of these selections have a page
of examples (click on the image or title), some don't (yet).

 Beginning
Readers
Dr. Seuss might have invented the genre, but he isn't
the only one who knows how to make fun rhymes into simple building blocks
of reading skills.

 Series
Books
Series books have kept young readers busy since the
days of Horatio Alger. I feature the heyday of series books with
the likes of Zane Grey, Nancy Drew, Tom Swift, Happy Hollisters and
others.

 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.

 Newberys
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.

Feminist
Juvenile novels featuring strong young girls, female
role models, and encouraging equality for all races, creeds, and kinds
of people. Perfect for any child finding her place in the world.

African-American
This collection features African-American families and children as their
protagonists, as well as some history and biography.

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.

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 or used book. Besides, some of these are
really great!
