We have another great sponsor this week for the blogger giveaway on Friday. Our lucky chosen and random bloggers will win the following book set from The American Schoolhouse Reader - The American Schoolhouse Reader: Volume I, II, III-A Colorized Children's Reading Collection from Post-Victorian America, 1890-1925!
From the TOS review of the book, "This three-book set is the first colorized collection of readers from Post-Victorian America. Beverly Allie edited and colorized this set and did a magnificent job! The American Schoolhouse Readers are an anthology of the best of late nineteenth and early twentieth-century readers and are wholesome instruction, stories, and illustrations, which are absolutely lovely to find these days. The quality of this set is unsurpassed. The books boast thick, beautiful hard covers and heavy paper - not to mention the content!" Read the complete TOS review of these books!
