Not sure why, but recently, Gwendolyn has fallen in love with the Little Men and Little Miss series + Charlie and Lola...Mama was hunting high and low for them and only managed to find more variety at Kinokuniya! For such "foreign" books, which are generally more expensive, they aren't really stocked up at Popular, which is a predominantly middle to lower end books. Though Mama is more than willing to invest in books, these are just seriously over-priced. The small Little Men and Little Miss books are priced at $7.90 and Charlie & Lola are priced close to $15 for the sligtly bigger sized ones. Even Mama finds it unbelievable and been trying to look for compilation and other alternative publishers. Such a pain. But Mama does agree that these books are fun to read and very interesting indeed!
