Thing #6

I decided to go to a book sight because I teach ESL Reading and reading for pleasure is one of my hobbies. I ended up at Biblio.com out of pure selfishness because I was looking for a book that goes with a series I am reading. I didn't realize until I had read books two, three and four of the series that I had actually missed the first book. I get most of my books from Half Price and of course they didn't have the first in the series on the shelves. Borders didn't have it and the nice lady proceeded to tell me that it was out of print. I was dying to find my missing first book.

When I found Biblio.com I decided to be a good student and started looking at children's books and books that I can get for my class that have a spanish and english version. After I played around for a while I had to look here for my missing book one. Guess what? They had it and it only cost one dollar. This is my lucky day. I ordered my book one and I also found an english copy of a book that I already have in spanish that my beginning speakers love. What a great sight for eductional books and not so educational books.
