I'm putting together an order for next year, to cover supplies and more books, but my budget is tiny, as are the budgets of most school libraries. There are definite gaps in the collection - not one copy of  If You Give A Mouse a Cookie, for example, except the big book edition ( Read more... )

I just need to change the name of the holiday to Bookmas.
