As I have no budget left to purchases book until May the only way we are able to get the required books in the library is via donations and the commission raised through Puffin Book Club.
So I thought I would ask if anyone would be able to donate the following books we require for themes and to complete series in the library. I am able to refund postage as I intend to do a book sale to get rid of all the very very old books that we currently have, lol.
