How is your nephew, Jacob doing? Is he home? What a little fighter he is.
Re: books. We scour yard sales, used bookstores, eBay, and bargain bins for books. The kids just love having the books without worrying about the due dates. They love the Redwall series and got tired of having to wait for the books to come to our library and being on the ILL waiting list. So eBay has been a great source.
BTW, the Redwall series by Brian Jacques is wonderful for the 9 and up crowd. They're about honor, valor, sacrifice. Great stuff. My children stay up all night to read the books. Actually, so do I.
