Hate to part with it:( We are downsizing our homeschool library and will be listing many, many books that we have collected over the years. We are a smoke free home. We were eclectic homeschoolers so we have books covering just about everything. Some of these books are ex-library, but if they are, they are complete and great reading copies, i.e. no missing pages, no damage affecting text readability, etc, If you are interested in several listings, I will be happy to combine them for a discount as long as they are purchased together and can be shipped together. If you have any questions, please feel free to Ebay message me. Our books are cherished and will be packed to ship well. Please take that into consideration when you see free shipping in the listing. Thanks for looking!
