BACK TO SCHOOL BOOKS for CHEAP!

Here is a list of Back-to-School books that are cheap!   What I mean by this is that these books are available used, and sometimes New, for a reasonable price --less than $5 dollars (book and shipping).

I'm pulling together this list so that teachers and other adults can add more books to their shelves and book baskets, giving kids more choices to read.

If you happen to have Amazon Prime you should check the New Prices.  Sometimes books are cheaper bought new if you don't have to pay for shipping.  Otherwise check out the New and Used books by second market sellers.  Books at 1-cent plus shipping will be about $4 bucks.  The list won't include any books over $5 dollars Total, nor any books that are in less than "Good" condition.

In some cases, I've included audio versions of the books.
