| I am in the midst of disposing of the estate
of a compulsive retentive children's librarian. I have hundreds of recent
children's books in near new condition, many inscribed by the authors.
If you do not find what you are looking for in our ABE listings, contact
me directly as I have several hundred volumes which have not yet been catalogued.
I also have her collection of Christmas books that I would like to sell
as one lot. Any interested parties please contact me directly. (posted

Our children's books range from collectible
first editions to more recent Caldecott and Newbery award winners.
These can be viewed online with ABE. With the closure of our store and
the switch to online selling we have suspended our BABIES NEED BOOKS
program which supplied free books to newborns and their families.
We would like to thank all of those who contributed to this program. Thanks
to our generous donors, over 1000 copies of GOODNIGHT MOON by Margaret
Wise Brown have been given to newborns in Stockton.
We would like to thank the following individuals
for their support of our BABIES NEED BOOKS program: Tim Otto,
Gail Williams, Mark & Lisa Cunningham, Sue Burnette, Peggy Maxwell.,
