Baby Shower Sampler
These titles were listed recently for a baby shower in the area. The range and quality demonstrate the flexibility and variety that I can provide for a dedicated purpose like a baby shower. How else may we customize? Retirement party? Teacher certification or first job? Housewarming?
This worked because I could report sellouts to browsers so no duplicate gifts would be given, even though I am likely to stock many of the titles all the time.
Let me know if I can prepare a list — or follow yours — for a person or an event that calls out for books as gifts.
