Hi,  I'm looking for several copies of "What to Expect When You're Expecting".    I work in a very large, low income high school and, unfortunately, we always have several girls become pregnant throughout the year.   I was hoping that I could find people willing to donate the "What to Expect" books so that we could give them to the girls.   

They do not have to be in perfect condition, just readable.   Thanks.

Andrea

Thank you to everyone who has responded.  I wish there was not a need for the books but since there is I want to help the girls be as ready as they can be.  Or at least as much as I and the caring people at PBS can help.

I don't have a copy of this, but I do have a suggestion: Check out your local Goodwill stores. I always see a copy (or two) at the ones around here, and they're not expensive.

Good luck!

Go to Amazon.com and order used copies. It's an old enough book to probably be priced at around a penny plus shipping which is roughly the same price as PBS credits.

 

I loved WTEWYE, it was my bible at a couple points in my life.

I see these all the time at garage sales.  I will keep an eye out this coming Saturday.  How many do you need?

Andrea,

I am checking my local freecycle groups as well.  People often post these books when they are done so they don't end up in a landfill.  Anyone who checks this post can do the same!  I'll let you know if I track any down.
