Childrens Landscape Books - Personal Library for Sale

**L* C* <d*@mindspring.com>**

Hi everyone.

I know this is a very unusual posting, and I apologize if it upsets anyone.
I am in the process of liquidating a large portion of my personal library.
I have sold the bulk of my books on eBay, but I have a fairly large
collection of books that deal direclty with children's landscapes
(playgrounds, school grounds, children's gardens) or are on subjects
relevant to the design and use of children's landscapes (particularly
school grounds).  I wanted to make these available to members of the
school_garden, SNAP and CYE lists before putting them up for auction on
eBay since they are directly useful to list members, and it's a good and
very inexpensive way to add to your personal library. Books are generally
in excellent condition (most in Mint).

The list includes author name, title, pub. date, hardback or paperback, the
list price/price at which I am offering the books.  I have taken 40-60% off
the list price of each book (the second price is the one I am asking).
Buyer will pay shipping (book rate postage plus packaging). Buyers in the
U.S. and Canada only, please (I'm in Georgia).

If you would like feedback on my book sales, please go to eBay.com (select
"search" then "seller".  My user id is "lcrowder@mindspring.com". You'll
see a number next to my user id - click it to see feedback left by my
buyers).

To visit my website on children's landscapes, go to:

http://www.mindspring.com/~discoverygardens/dgihome.html

I will be moving at the end of July, so I am in rather a hurry to reduce my
library as quickly as possible so I don't have to pay to move them. I will
need to receive payments by absolutely no later than Friday, July 23rd
(books will be packaged over that weekend and shipped out Monday, 7/26).

Each book will go to the first person who asks for it, provided they agree
to forward payment immediately.

Again, I apologize if anyone is upset by this message (and for
cross-postings), but I wanted to offer these books to the people would
would be most likely to get some use out of them and this was the best way
I could think of to do that.

Thanks.

Lisa Crowder

When I die, she said, I'm coming
back as a tree with deep roots &
I'll wave my leaves at the children
every morning on their way to
school & whisper tree songs at
night in their dreams.

Trees with deep roots know
about the things children need.
