I know there are a lot out there, but it's time consuming looking for them as there are several authors, and I'd really like to get as many as possible from one person.  No deal is needed but would be nice as they're very short books.  Thanks for reading.  Pat

Hi, are you looking for just any Star Trek books? Or are you looking for the Star Trek books that were in the "Young Reader" series? I do not have any of the latter, but I do however have a lot of Star Trek books in my bookshelf! 

Some of the older Bantam books are very short! Some of the earlier Pocket books are too! If you want very short stories, there are a few good anthologies out there with short stories in them! A good title to search for is "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds." Short stories published by Star Trek fans! 

Here is a listing of the Young Adult books to help your search:

For the much younger audience back awhile ago there were the book & record sets. I believe it was Peter Pan Records that released the Star Trek childrens books which were roughly 12 pages long. Sort of a read-a-long with the record type. I'm sure a search for "Peter Pan Star Trek" will find some of the titles. I apologize, I cannot seem to recall the titles of any at this time. :) Good Luck!
