• Book list: what Maria has read (From recently to old ones)
Age 1 to age 1.5The Works is the bookshop where you can buy discount new books. I have bought "Winne the Pooh" for only 3.5 pounds, the publish price is 19.99 pounds, unbelievable! If you live in London, you can go to 'Banana Bookshop’ which is located in a converted warehouse in Covent Garden, it is same as The Works.
British Heart foundation has charity shops which may have second-hand children books. Usualy it costs 50 pence for one book, for big book, sometimes it costs 3 pounds for one book. You can search nearby shops on website. In Newcastle upon Tyne, the stop on 69 Clayton street (postcode NE1 5PY) has many children books.
Cancer Research UK also has chrity shops which sell second-hand books. But not all shops have children books, you have to call in some shops to have a look. The one nearby where I live (10 Gosforth Center) have children books available: 3 books for one pound, it is really cheap. The books are in well-condition. From the homepage of Cancer Reaserch, click "visiting a charity shop", you can find nearby shops.
OXfam Bookshop has wide range second-hand books, but is is more expensive than the above shops. Usually one book costs from 99 pence. You can search what book they have from Online shop.
