A wonderful resource for the UG level for the entire year. Sometimes a bit overwhelming in the DK “fill the page with information” style, but not so much that it detracts from the learning. There are some pictures that may need to be made more modest if you are not used to your children seeing people with less than full coverage clothing on, but nothing a black sharpie or sticker can’t rectify.

More than just a bookstore

I know I can trust Bookshelf Central. They are a small business with a huge heart, always willing to help with book recommendations and truly make the customer feel valued.

I was amazed that it was packaged so well. Thank you for paying attention to detail. I will share this with my friends and family.

I will definitely remember you when we need to purchase more Bibles. You've been a great help.

I just wanted to write and say THANK YOU! I received my latest order by UPS today. I have had shipments in the past that have been ruined because they were left out in the weather. But thanks to the way that you carefully wrap all the books in my order, even IF it would have been left out in the weather, my books would NOT be ruined!! Thank you for your conscientious care in shipping our materials!

The best thing about Bookshelf Central is that it saves a busy mom TIME! The ease of having the books I need systematically laid out by category keeps me from having to look here, there, and everywhere for books.
