60 "Books & more," so far, are listed "for sale" ...

... at http://threadsofsilver.wordpress.com/ under "Books & more for sale, page 2," in the right side bar ... under "For Sale !"

The actual link is below here:

http://threadsofsilver.wordpress.com/things-we-have-for-sale/books-more-for-sale-page-2/

Soon, I should have 80 items there, for sale.

My posts, here, dated June ____, has an explanation of the items included in the sale.

Some items are textbooks, and some are curriculum materials, offered to those who educate their own children at home, in the USA, and elsewhere.
So, though anyone may buy the hardback, collector's books, published before 1940, some of the other books are much more recent, and are meant to be used by teachers, and home educators, as well as private tutors, who work with students who want to excel.

Come back, from time to time, to see what "disappears" on the "For Sale !" list (those that sell), and also to see what has been added (new items I list there).

And you are welcome to share a link to the page on *Threads of Silver* with books, DVDs, audio tapes, educational card games, children's books, music CDs and audio cassettes, and collector's books and antique books, for sale, so that others can find the page, and look to see if there is anything they can use, there ....

One man's trash is another man's treasure.
These items I do not consider to be trash.
But I no longer need them, because The Lord has been bountiful, once again, to provide many other books we can make use of.
I simply want to pass on to someone else these good books and other items, so that someone else can benefit from them, or by obtaining one or two (or more) to pass on to someone they know, who will enjoy them.

For Sale ! -- books, videos, DVDs, audio CDs, card games

There are 40 items, so far, listed *For Sale !* on the blog site -- Threads of Silver -- for those who are parents, & home educators, & teachers of children, young people (some call 'teens') and young adults, ... & grandparents.

All are either educational materials or ... are educational in that one can learn from them:

The youngest age for these items is toddler (age 2 to 3).
Other items are meant for high-school-age and college-age students to use while in their learning courses. (to refer to, or to use as part of their course studies)
Some items listed are intended as reference resources. (such as paperback dictionaries, synonym and antonym dictionaries)
Others are literature books for reading, or study. (some are for adults and some are for young people to read, from 6 years up through 18 years)

Others are readers for home educators to use while teaching elementary-age students.
We also have some educational card games *For Sale !*

**Important Note:** Since we will be adding more items, over time, please come back, again, and look, after you view the list the first time. -- !
You will see more and more items listed there.

Quite a variety of items will be listed there, including some paintings, and a numbered print, or two (one is of a the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, in KY), plus ceramic vases, and more ....

Some books are pre-1930 editions of good, the-information-never-becomes-out-of-date type books -- some cover school subjects such as trigonometry, or English, and more.
Though some of these much older editions of books have yellowed pages, we've not found them at lower prices than ours, except at charitable-organization or charitable-ministry stores. (such as Salvation Army)
The information, if copied by you (scanned and then put into a computer file, as a pdf), could be put up for sale, as an e-book, by you, to help others find that information which is still reliable and useable. We must not lose the "old ways" because these taught our parents and grandparents what they learned, and knew, and used for the good of others and for their own families, besides using the information in the life work they did, in years past.

Old books should still have a place in our lives, and in the lives of our children.
If we choose to let go of, or give up, our heritage of learning, from the past, we will have thrown away much good that others meant to pass on to us, for our benefit, and to bless our lives, and us in preparing for own life work.
So, we're listing these older editions, for those who appreciate and make use of them. We realize that they are still useful. We hope they will be used to bless someone's life.

Also, there will be some family-oriented videos and DVDs listed.
