    I have a hard time figuring out which books to choose at garage sales/thrift stores (where I buy almost all my kids’ books).  I’m tempted to buy every biography, historical book, science-y book, etc that seems interesting and age appropriate, but we already have a floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall bookshelf that is packed full of books and there’s only room for so many.  How do you choose which books to own?

    I tend to have a general idea of what I need from AO/SCM and try to stick to those books that I plan to use.  I do pick up fun extras if the price is good.  But if it’s for formal school time, I try to stick to my ‘list’ or else I know I’ll never get to them:) It’s tough…..
