WIDENING TRAILS

This book was bought used and is in good condition.

I take very good care of my books in my smoke-free environment.

Vintage readers are a blast from the past!

Books like this give us a glimpse into a quite a different era! The world seems straightforward and life seems quite jolly. All problems can all be solved. Tra la la!

SPECIAL NOTE: I do not usually talk about a book's smell, because it is not usually an issue. But these old readers can sometimes have a bit of a musty smell. I do not sell anything that is mildewed or too unpleasant. But people who are super-sensitive to smells might react unfavorably to this.

I am happy to combine shipping to save my buyers money. Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and not on distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. 

However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference.


Thanks for looking!
