Up The Faraway Tree (Book)

I don't suppose anyone has a copy of this book they would consider selling me, as my grandson really wants to read it and its very expensive on places like Amazon etc.

Thanks lynn, but when you click on the books it says they can't get them now. It gives you a link to try another place but they are asking almost £28 for it.

Yes he has tried the library, they only have one copy in the whole of Essex and there is a very very long waiting list.
From the way they were talking it could be so long he would be too old to want to read it by the time it becomes available.

just another quick thought, Tesco usually have an excellent range of books that are more often than not cheaper than anywhere else. Worth a check?

No unfortunatly have still not been able to get that one. We have got others in the series at a cheap price but that paticular one seems very elusive or very expensive.

No have looked in Tesco, Asda and all book shops with no luck.
