I wonder if you’re interested in getting used books by snail mail from me? I’m a mother of two kids, and now they’ve grown up and children’s books are in no use anymore, just sitting quietly in my library. I had many ゾロリ books but I’ve thrown them away when I moved to Tokyo four years ago, unfortunately, but still I have some good children’s books and I can gather some books from my tadoku friends too. The only problem is the high cost of sending. If you’re interested in, please let me know.

というわけで、もし私や私の友達がもっている児童書や絵本が役に立つようであれば、日本から送ってもいいですよ。送料を負担してもらわないといけないけれど。送料が高いんですよね、１０冊で５０００円ぐらいするかもしれませんね。それでも新しい本を買うよりは安くすむかな？私は時々、日本のドラマCDとか切手とかをアメリカやカナダに住んでいる友達に送ってあげてますよ。

では、また！

I’m glad to have another enthusiastic recommendation for the ゾロリ series ^^ When I first started reading it, I thought “Wow, this is great fun… it’s not too hard… there’s a lot of the series available from Kinokuniya, and $15 isn’t a horrible amount to pay for a new book. I bet other extended readers would appreciate this too!” I put in an inter-library loan request for two others that another library in the area has… I can’t wait for them to get here ^^

By the way, if you can recommend other books or series that might be good to look into, I’d love to hear about them ^^

というわけで、一緒に多読を楽しんでいけるといいなあと思っています。
