They are using the 'donate' to remove unwanted inventory. I will admit, I should have inquired a bit more about what book was being donated. Next year, I'll just exclusively stick with toys for tots. I pick it out, buy it, and put it in the bin. We do that yearly. B&N could take a lesson from that model. Let you go buy any book, but it in a bin for donation, not just books they are trying to get rid of.

Still. Donate or don't donate. You should have looked at the books. Most kids today dont have the attention span to read treasure island anyhow. You didn't give a list of the other books. Some kids like thin books.
