Guides to buying book lots.

These guides answer the questions we hear most before someone buys a lot. Each one explains what is actually in the box, who it suits and how to pick a size, so you can choose with confidence and skip the guesswork. If you are stocking a classroom or a home library for young readers, start with the children’s guide: it walks through board books, picture books, early readers and chapter books, and compares the smaller lots with the 30 lb and 50 lb boxes. Teachers, homeschool families and daycares will find the classroom library guide useful for planning a shelf by age and reading level. If you like a surprise, the books-by-the-pound guide explains what our weights mean, why book counts vary and how the 10 lb, 20 lb, 30 lb and 50 lb boxes compare. Every lot ships free within the continental U.S., and you can return any lot within 90 days.
