We have a half sized Billy in T's room, a fullsized Billy in the sitting room, and a shelf in our room. I got annoyed with the shelf and decided to clear off a shelf in my office for outgrown but still sentimental picture books, and put all the picture books in a big pile for T to sort. I need to do the chapter books, I've got a better sense of what Teddy will read (myths, dragons, adventured) and won't read (cutesy anthromorphised animal stories).

My August project (let's be honest, my September project for a visiting grandma) is to get all the series together so they are more accessible.

Last year, we organised a book swap at the school for WBD so I do tend to hang onto them to donate en masse, unless we have a friend who would be particularly interested in a topic or would be keen on a book.
