#109744 - 03/03/07 02:01 AM Looking for a special baby book-please HELP!
Pam R. Member Registered: 03/10/06 Posts: 404	I have been online to Amazon, bookstores, checked the author, title and publisher with no luck. This is an old baby journal album for newly adopted children. A friend has one from many years ago. I would love to buy it for a gal I work with who just adopted a baby girl. The name of the book is ALL ABOUT YOU, written by Marion MacLeod. The publisher is C.R. Gibson. I have tried everywhere including Ebay and Googleing. If anyone has heard of this book, please let me know. It would be the perfect gift for this family. Thanks! _________________________ Pam

They don't have the book. None of the out of print sites have it. It is in only 3 libraries worldwide and you probably couldn't buy it outright. University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Chapel Hill, NC 27514 United States 2. UCLA Library Los Angeles, CA 90024 United States 3. University of Hong Kong Library Pokfulam, Hong Kong Book I put requests in all over the out of print sites, so if it shows up, you'll be the second to know. I don't know if you'd be interested in a new book along the same lines if indeed one exists. Good Luck. chick _________________________ chick ~ Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't ~ ~ Prayer is the most we can do for another human being ~

Pam R. Member Registered: 03/10/06 Posts: 404	Thank you soooo much Chick for all your research. You certainly got further than I did! Wow, I didn't know it was from 1959! The person I know who bought it, got it in 1973. Oh well, I guess I am out of luck. But yes, I would be willing to purchase another on the same lines, if possible. I will try to look further. Sometimes simply stopping in Barnes & Noble in person might help. The sales people are quite helpful. Thanks so much again Chick, you saved me a ton of time! _________________________ Pam

chickadee Member Registered: 09/26/04 Posts: 3910 Loc: Alabama	Brenda, to find a copy of a book that is no longer in print, Nelson's website (now a christian book and bible publisher in Nashville,TN)directs you to a series of out of print search websites. I checked them all, came up empty but left an email for notification if it shows up. That's a good suggestion to call the company about a back list. Pam, the number is(800) 441-0511. Good Luck and hope you find it. chick _________________________ chick ~ Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't ~ ~ Prayer is the most we can do for another human being ~
