Valuable Childrens's Books - What are they?

Believe it or not, but there are children's books worth $30, $50 and even over $100! The key to finding these is to know which ones are valuable.

I used to think that if it was old, it was probably worth at least $20. However, after spending a small fortune buying "old" books, this proved not to be the case.

So, I asked myself: "How can I find out which books are worth alot of money?"I started to research Ebay, but this was VERY time consuming!

I needed a list or cheat sheet to tell me what books to buy.

For example, what if you found these books tucked away at a thrift store? They are all old and interesting, but which one is worth "a lot of money"? Can you guess?















ANSWER:

- The Sugar Mouse Cake by Gene Zion - worth over $100

- White Stallion of Lipizza - $6.00 - $10.00 (not worth your time)

- Thornton Burgess Animal Stories - maybe $10.00

- The Sweet Smell of Christmas (scratch and sniff book) - $5.00 if you're lucky!

- Mother Goose - $1.00

- Santa Clause and His Works - $10 - $30 (information difficult to verify)

- The Baby's Bouquet - $20 - $70

- The Christmas Cookie Sprinkle Snitcher - $350 - $500!

If you failed this little test, don't worry the Schultz family have created a great system that teaches you what books to look for and teaches you where you will remember! Read all about it
