Thursday Middle School
Pass-Along!

It is always brief. We always include
a bit of humor; and all kinds of other stuff.

Building Everyday Leadership in All Teens: Promoting Attitudes and Actions for Respect and Success-Leader's Guide
by Mariam MacGregor (2007, Free Spirit, 29.95)
[Check/Credit
Card Price...Less 21% = 23.66]
Every teen can be a leader. Leadership is not just about taking the lead in big ways, but in everyday small things, too. These sessions guide teens to explore what it means to be a leader, how to work with others, ethical decision-making, risk-taking, team-building, communication, creative thinking, and more. Teens learn what's necessary to do something, even if that something is just speaking up. Adults can choose the sessions that seem best for their class or group, or explore leadership through an entire school year. Requires use of the teen guide, Everyday Leadership (see above). Grades 6-12. [8.5” x 11”...198 pages]

Order by 1:00 P.M. (Central Time)... We'll send a confirming e-mail, and normally ship the same day!
Tracking information ... We'll have the U.S. Postal Service or UPS send you tracking information each time your package is scanned.
We're best known for two things... The way we pack (very carefully); and the way we ship (very quickly).
We take book safety seriously... Your books will be shrink-wrapped on a heavy piece of cardboard, and placed in a heavy-duty box or a padded mailing bag (depending on the size of your order). We also pack around the books with plenty of clean paper to keep the books from moving. And, when the order is ready to ship, we'll stamp the box with our traditional red "HANDLE WITH ENTHUSIASM" stamp.
Our customers tell us... That we are pretty good at what we do. And we ought to be! We've been dispatching books to all corners of the planet since 1978. We're one of those old-fashioned companies with real toll-free telephones—and real people to answer them. It will not be an accident that your books will arrive in perfect condition. We make sure they will.
Standard Shipping... 3.50 for orders under 50.00; free shipping for any order over 50.00 (including Purchase Orders).
Expedited Shipping... 5.00 for one book; 9.95 for two or more books. We normally use First Class Mail for home addresses; UPS for school addresses.
Can't find what you're looking for?
Just send us an e-mail (paperbacks@usmo.com),
or call (800-227-2591). We'll give you pricing information, and availability. If we don't have a particular book in stock, or can't get it to you rather quickly, we'll help find a source. |
