updated the list with all the complete list.

Hi - I have a readable but not listable original copy of "Across Five Aprils"  which I can send to you. If you are interested, currently already listed on my bookshelf  is the original version of the book "Shane & Other Stories" which is also on the reading list. That one would be for a credit. As per the standard procedure,  I would pay for the postage and I can add the "Five Aprils" book. Or I can just send the "Five Aprils " book by itself for no credit. Do you pay the postage if it's just an unlistable book? I'm not familiar with the procedure for this. - Florence

Frankenstein on my shelf - I'll do 2/1 if you see anything else.

I pmed you about the E B White books.

Thanks for everyone's help.  Got all I need for now.  Will check back during Second Semester for different books.
