Book Sale Booty

Don't worry Trish & Mary, I didn't take them all. 

The boys and I stopped at the Sheperd of the Glen Church book sale this evening. We made out pretty well - I picked up a few and they picked up a few.

Here's the take:

• The Alphabet Sisters by Monica McInerney
• Eating Heaven by Jennie Shortridge - just finished a library copy, happy to have one to lend
• The Summer Guest by Justin Cronin
• Gift from the Sea</EM> by Anne Morrow Lindbergh - from the 50s, one of my faves
• The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath - harcover from 1971
• Davita's Harp by Chaim Potok - been on my list for sometime now i have no excuse
• The Leopard Hat: A Daugther's Story by Valerie Steiker
• Nancy Drew - The Clue in the Diary (no.7) from 1962 - love the old covers
• another copy of Charlotte's Web, because can there ever be enough? all of ours are well-loved
• a hardcover edition of Charlie & the Chocolate Factory
• a couple of Encyclopedia Browns
• Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli
• Mrs Piggle Wiggle by Betty McDonald
• Half Magic by Edward Eager
• the littles books:
• • Tar Beach & Aunt Harriet's Underground Railroad in the Sky  by Faith Ringgold
  • Check it Out: The Book about Libraries by Gail Gibbons
  • Fill it Up! All About Service Stations by Gail Gibbons
  • The Boats on the River by Marjorie Flack
  • The Big Snow by Berta and Elmer Hader
  • How Pizza Came to Queens by Dayal Kaur Khalsa
  • Fire Truck< by Peter Sis
  • Hurry Up Slowpoke - an easy reader from 1961 that Caleb picked out
  • The First Book of Space - neato retro read from 1953

KWB found a baseball card in one of his Encyclopedia Brown books which he quickly looked up in his new (used) copy of Official Baseball Card Price Guide 1992.

All this (and a few more) for the low low price of $23. Can I get a woo-hoo?

The End.
