Public Library Book Sale Haul!!!

I went to my very first "official" library book sale this past Friday! I was really impressed with the deals and the amount of books there. I tried to control myself and not buy every book that looked good. I was looking for books that I read before and liked to add it to my personal library at home. I also got the idea recently to start collecting books for my future classroom iA or just to keep at home for little children who come over ;) Either way, I found some good books in my opinion and wanted to share them. Looking forward to more book sales! (Click the images to enlarge.)

One of the deals was 5 hardcover books for $3.00, so I chose...

Iron House by John Hart. I saw this in the bargain section several times on Barnes and Noble's site , but never bought it. Read about it here.

And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini. I have Kite Runner by him and couldn't finish it, but I wanted to give his other books a try. Read about this book here.

The Ugly Duckling Goes to Work: Wisdom for the workplace from the classic tales of Hans Christian Andersen. I love fairy tales and this sounded interesting. Read about it here.

The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. I heard good things about this from someone (on YouTube) plus I am into self-help books. Read about it here.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I never read this completely, but heard a lot of good things about it. I am into "African American" literature and wanted to read this classic. This is the only book not in great condition, but if I like it a lot, I could get a better copy later on. Read about this here.




The best part for me was the children's books I found! These were 5 big books for $1.00!!! I got a 101 Dalmatians book, but gave that away to 2 little kids, so I have 4 to share from this haul.
(PS. You'll probably notice I was on a Disney/movie roll :P)
 
The Nursery Rhymes of Winnie the Pooh. This looked cute and had a ton of familiar rhymes. Read about it here.

Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure: A read aloud story book. I love all the Tinker Bell movies and thought, since I don't plan on collecting all the DVDs, I could still get the books!

The Lion King. Again, I plan on collecting Disney books based on movies I like, so I got this one too.

Step into Narnia: A journey through The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by EJ Kirk. I thought this book would make a good introduction into the series for children. Look inside here.



That's all folks :p
