FREE!!! Large stack of children's picture books looking for a new home


AandA

Recommended Posts

Hi there - we have a large number of children's books, all in great condition, which are looking for a new home. These are the books that got our three children in to reading, and now that they have grown out of them we would be delighted to see them gain a new lease of life with another family.


We have sorted them in to two stacks (please note the second stack has now gone, subject to collection):


STACK 1 - age 4-6. Picture books, and books that you can read to your child. I'd say these are for younger kids that are not yet reading independently. Lots of quality and fun reads, including some of the "lift the flap" type of fact books as well as some great stories - Winnie the Witch, Daisy, Dr Seuss, Roald Dahl, Janet and Allan Ahlberg, and many more.


GONE (subject to collection): STACK 2 - age 9-12. Chapter books, ranging from easy through to more advanced. Plenty of Jacqueline Wilson, Dick King Smith, etc.


Collection from SE5. You would definitely want a car or some method of transportation, each stack is roughly 2 large carrier bags so not light!

    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
    • yes that's the one!  it was (nearly) harmless fun to get the un-initiated to put the coin in for you i also seem to remember that the Hanway Street place was called Govinda's.  it was vegetarian, vegan even - but it was much more palatable fare than the standard Hare Krishna stuff.  I also used to go tot he Indian Y - which I remmber discussing on the EDF some eyars ago.  And then the first Wagamama opened off Russell Street
