Thought about ordering a nice copy of Velveteen Rabbit as a birthday gift for my daughter from Folio. The book isn't bad at $60 but then they want another $18 for standard shipping.
I will likely just get her a copy elsewhere. I was a little put off by their shipping price.Looking for the fonting of youth.

The wife and I took the 2+ hour drive on Wednesday to check out Bart's Books. Located in Ojai, California, it is the touted as the world's largest outdoor bookstore and I have to say it was pretty impressive. They had very large sections of philosophy, poetry, biographies and autobiographies, and, of course, fiction. I will say that I am always dismayed when I go to a bookstore, especially larger ones, and they don't have a dedicated horror section (yet somehow horror and fantasy always warrant their own) and Bart's was no exception. However, it was incredibly well organized and had more than couple of cool items, including a "rare books" room.
I wound up not buying anything because I've been feeling guilty about my current lack of reading, but these were some of the cool finds there:- hardcover editions (I'm assuming first editions because of being in the "rare book" room, not sure if signed or not) of
- Mine by Robert McCammon
- Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk
- Books of Blood by Clive Barker
- Arkham House edition of Lovecraft's 3 Tales of Horror
- Signed and inscribed The Ax by Donald E. Westlake
- The incredibly oversized doorstop of an Easton Press edition of Poe's The Raven
- a very nice paperback edition of Jim Thompson's The Killer Inside Me
