  • Answer:

    Trawl around garage sales and thrift stores and anywhere you can get books dirt cheap. Then you can afford to take some chances and build a broad library without breaking the bank. Plenty of solid reference books, science, history, philosophy, stuff you've heard of but maybe never read. Same with classic literature. Do a search on 'Penguin Classics' for some ideas but if you recognise a title when you're browsing those piles of second hand books then it's worth considering. For example a local charity shop had a lovely illustrated copy of Homer's Iliad which cost approx 50 cents, so I got it for my daughter's collection even though she's only 4 and won't be interested in it for years.

you should store it with books by lucky maud montgomery..i loved anne of green gables! :) here's a list of her works http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Maud_Montgomery#Works you should also store manga (it is actually pretty nice..it teaches nice lessons ie courage, strength, love, friendship and so forth and it is entertaining) it is not hard to read...i saw a cute 5 year old reading manga at a bookstore once :) some titles that are family friendly can be found here http://www.manga4kids.com/

Personally I could easily fill a whole house with books if given half the chance so would struggle to limit myself to suggestions just for a single room! Really the point of this post was just to let you know that, as homeschoolers, we're able to borrow up to 600 books, for three months at a time, from the School Library Service. You might want to see if any similar scheme exists in your home-state.
