Today’s “Oldies but Goodies” is a selection of timeless books for kindergarteners and early readers. Some of these titles can still be found at the local library, most are available through Amazon.com and the rest are obtainable at reasonably priced used-book websites like AbeBooks.com and alibras.com. All of them have great illustrations. 🙂
