Oh, huh. I was going to take my copy of Becoming Naomi Leon to the used book store this weekend--great book, but I don't keep a lot of paperbacks once I've read them--but it sounds perfect for this library. (I've also got some young adult books in Spanish that I'm not reading anymore./0 Maybe instead I'll swing by the bookstore and look for some other good books and manga and send them along in a bigger package. Two quick questions!
1) How urgent is this? That is, if it takes me a week or two to get a package together and mail it, would that still be okay?
2) For manga, I often see volumes 3-6 or what not, but not volume 1, when I'm in the bookstore. Should I not send that kind of series book unless I can get a continuous set starting from the first volume, or should I send along what I can find and assume kids will be okay with reading things a little out of sequence/context? (If the latter, I'll try to look for slightly more episodic stuff.)
