I am working with an organization called Total Equity Now (https://www.harlemonestop.com/organization/1974/ten-total-equity-now).

Each year they ask for donations of new and like-new books for children and teens who are currently living in transitional housing.

As I understand it, something like 100,000 children in the NYC area are currently living in transitional housing/homeless shelters.

If you are doing a deal on children's books and/or Young Adult titles, particularly books with African-American or Latino children as characters, please PM me and let me know!  Your books will be going to a good home!  Thank you!

If you want to order children's books, some are small hardbacks. I usually only allow 1 children's books per order.However, my children's books were supposed to go to 2 seperate children's charities before covid hit and they closed so I couldn't get the books  to them. So, if you want to take advantage of my 4/1 deal, go ahead. If yiou see anything that looks like it will work, order one and then PM me to let me know which ones you are interested in and I will try and make it work. Please just don't order large hardback books. thanks, good luck, Sandra

Hello, I usually do a 5/3 deal. However, take a look at my shelf and see if there is anything of interest and we can negotiate. I can let you know the condition of each book as well.

This year's holiday book drive has begun.  Please PM if you are offering any deals on children's books or books for YA.

Also:  if you have any children's books in Spanish, please PM me.  They are doing another drive at my workplace for children's books in Spanish for the newly arrived migrants.  Thank you and happy holidays!
