3 for 1 on all kids books here.  I have one son who is now twelve, so there are lots of 'boys' books on my shelf.

I have a ton of Animorph books on my shelf. All 3 for 1. My son is 14 and he just finished reading all of them. He loved them. We didn't buy every one, we borrowed some from the library, but I do have most of the series available.

Sorry guys, I don't see what I am looking for on your shelves. I am looking specifically for the subjects I posted about. If you think that I missed some that are there let me know. Thanks! (=

Hu Adrienne, I may have a couple that will interest them.  One is a Cobi Jones Soccer Games book,  A D2 mighty Ducks book, Two Nancy Drew Hardy Boys Super Mysteries(one takes place in Japan the other Hawaii), Crazy Week-end (about two boys who go flying and witness an armored car heist).  I can offer two for one if any of these are what you may be looking for.  Carrie
