Adding more

Well I have some more books for the release. They aren't registered yet, but they will be soon, once I print off more of my labels to use. I'll put up those that I have added once they are registered. If you'd like a complete listing of the books available please check out my bookcrossing site at:

The Hunt is On...

I've slowly started to hunt for more books. I have added:
Nighty Nightmare by James Howe
Countdown to Terror (Hardy Boys #28) by Franklin W. Dixon
Witness to Murder (Hardy Boys #20) by Franklin W. Dixon
You be the Jury: Courtroom V by Marvin Miller

Encyclopedia Brown Sets the Pace by Donald J. Sobol
Secrets in the Attic by Carol Beach York
The Number File (Hardy Boys #17) by Franklin W. Dixon
Conquest at Quendor (Zork #4) by S. Eric Meretzky

to whomever

For this year, I hope to release even more. If you'd like to donate books, they are welcomed. If you'd like something in return, both Irissunshine, not-a-clue and travelin-vibe , have offered me their books for trades.

2006/2007 info

2006 release went rather well. I think I figured I had over 100 books, and had about half left. A lot of the kids where excited to get the books, and they forgot all about the candy.

Nov 1, 2006
Most of the books on here will be kids books. They are also mostly Halloween books for the release I do at that time.

10-15-07 The offical count of books left is 70. So I'll see about getting some more to bring the count up. I think I'm gonna try and find a way to have them seperated from younger kids and older, by using color coding.

New Element

So this year for the release, I'm adding a new element. Last year I had a letter typed up and by the books, this year I shrunk that same letter made it for one book instead of multiple, and printing it on a 2" x 4" label to be put in the front of the book near the label with the BCID. We shall see if this gets more hits then before. I'll probably still put the other letter out near the books. I also think I'll see if I can't put a sign in the yard that says something about free books...Each year I improve and revamp the system. But anyways here's the letter:

I’m a very special book. I hope I’ve found new friend in you. I’m just a newbie in the bookcrossing world, so my journey has only just begun, so help me further my journey.
Here’s all you have to do:
Go to www.bookcrossing.com and enter my BCID number which can be found on inside of my front cover. There’s no need to become a member to journal that you have me, you can do it anonymously (though if you like the idea I suggest becoming a member to release more of my friends). Read me, and then release me so other kids can enjoy my story, if you like me so much and wish to keep me, you can do that too. Any information that is given to the bookcrossing community stays in the community. Just think, you can even get books from across the ocean (trading is for members only.)
I hope I make your night and that you also get lots of goodies to enjoy while reading me.
