I especially need books in German. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-304390 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 05:26:27 +0000 Sweet T 304390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have around 25 so far. I love buying new ones but they are so expensive! I'm hoping to find a good place for used kids books here. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-304386 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 05:21:48 +0000 heffalump 304386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We probably have about 50-60. We only have her board books out because she's still too little for paper books, she'll just ruin them and she's not interested in the story anyway, just turning the pages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-304349 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 02:34:21 +0000 banana 304349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe around 30ish? I'm buying 5 new books right now on Amazon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-304173 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 22:14:13 +0000 immabeetoo 304173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe 50? I actually just took a picture of our bookshelf to show my Mom what I did with the baby quilt fabric scraps she sent me! </p> <p>I pop into our Goodwill once a week or so and can't pass up beautiful, like-new hardbacks or board books for .59 cents! We are big on reading and both grew up that way, so I hope that our bookshelf is full by the time he gets here in November! </p> [attach=1391/12/maojnq.450x600.IMG_0205.JPG] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-304148 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 22:05:37 +0000 mrsjyw 304148@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we have over 25 right now from 2 showers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303762 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 20:05:06 +0000 yin 303762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think LO never has enough books, but he has a pretty big collection. My younger sister gave me all of her books, which was a great start. I buy books that I think he will like, and we are starting to borrow books from the library. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303607 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:25:29 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 303607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have 15-20 books set aside for future LOs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303570 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:13:47 +0000 SAHM0811 303570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm scared to count. We gave away alot during our move, but still shipped over about 3 med size boxes of children's books to come along with us. Been buying a few kids' ebooks too lately for the iPad). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303560 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 19:10:11 +0000 Mrs. Pen 303560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>hmm... probably around 40. I just bought a bunch, and then took some from my parents house :) </p> <p>I need to decide how to store them in his room though... right now they are in a box on his floor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303326 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 18:15:08 +0000 Ree723 303326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not as many as I would like - maybe about 20 - 25? We'll be moving countries in the next year or two so I'm trying not to buy too much stuff that we'll have just have to move, or even worse, get rid of! DD is only 3 months so we have a rotation of about 10 books that we read every day as she loves looking at the pictures. Once she's a bit older and can understand the stories a bit more, we'll start taking books out of the library to keep the variety up. </p> <p>I love books though and can't wait until we're settled and can buy lots and LOTS of books! Oh that's the other thing, books in Australia are ludicrously expensive, so I'm definitely not buying many here if we're not staying long term! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303308 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 18:10:21 +0000 stargal 303308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>about 50 or morewe got a lot of books from our baby shower and our library has a shelf of free books they give out so were always on the look out for kid books from there. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303230 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 17:57:11 +0000 Mrs. Bee 303230@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: we stopped buying board books a while ago because regular books have better stories. now i wish i hadn't bought so many board books! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303227 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 17:56:01 +0000 chopsuey 303227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not too many.. Maybe 30 total? A bunch are Dr Seuss and curious George. Not a Dr Seuss fan.. And Lo prefers her larger board books </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-books-do-you-have-in-your-los-library#post-303207 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 17:49:55 +0000 Mrs. Bee 303207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We probably have maybe 80-100 books? Now I buy books specifically because I think Charlie will enjoy them, whereas when he couldn't really understand the story, it didn't matter as much. He gets so into his favorite books. We usually read around 6 over and over again and rotate in new books.</p> <p>How many books do you have in your LO's library? How many books do you read regularly? </p>
