Reusing and Recycling

• Our books get reused all the time, but we also do everything we can to help save the earth.
• We love to see people come in with reusable bags, especially the cute book themed ones.  If you have a bunch of old shopping bags piling up we will gladly reuse them.
• Don't toss all those bubble mailers after you open them.  They can generally be reused a few times.  We love to reuse those for the books we ship out for people.  Don't worry - we will take off the old address labels. 

Animals
