Penny Wednesday Kid Edition – 12/26/2018

So this was harder than I thought it would be. Original idea — post the best rated kids books listed for $0.01 by Amazon. Piece of cake. Just sort from lowest to highest, skip the freebies, and this feature writes itself. Wrong!

That idea only works if I disavow considerations like shipping price, quality, and ethics. But given Penny Candi’s mission to, at minimum, be helpful, the easy way can’t be today.

So without further ado, here is this week’s list. All kid books in honor of the holidays. Shipping price is noted where applicable. Linked page is to the re-seller offering the penny price. Happy Bargaining!
