A couple of the postings I have read said that that person didn't buy country or state books because the kids don't check them out, and teachers don't assign the topics as reports. Well, I'm going to be one vote for the other side, at least as far as state books go. A few years ago I had an opportunity to buy the updated "America the Beautiful" series at a good price if I paid for the whole thing up front. Never one to turn down a bargain I did it. There is never a time that at least 3 or 4 aren't checked out. My kids LOVE them. It actually was a surprise to me that they are popular. I bought them mostly to support the 4th grade curriculum, but kids in all grades (K-5) check them out. Of course, they are new, and bright looking. Don't discount state books just because teachers don't ask for them. currently reading Catcher in the Rye (again) Wrinkle in Time Second Watch but mostly watching the Olympics!
