Hi Anyone know if there is a good bookshop in any of the shopping centres near WDW?
We are looking for the ';Follow Jade'; series which teaches english speaking toddlers %26amp; pre-schoolers Mandarin. I have found other bookshops in the US that sell them but the shipping to the UK is as much as, if not more, than the dvd%26#39;s!
We are coming over in November.
Thanks
Mandy
Good Bookshop near WDW ?? !!
There is a Books-a-Million in the shopping center on the NE corner of Kirkman Rd and I-Drive, close to Universal Stuidios. Depending how long you%26#39;re staying you might be able to have them shipped from amazon.com to your hotel.

Someone may know of a more ';local'; bookshop'; but I was interested in learning about these programs for my nieces and checked the websites of our two major book chains - Barnes and Nobles and Borders/Waldenbooks- both of which have several large bookstores in the Orlando area. Barnes and Noble doesn%26#39;t list them at all, Borders has them listed but marked as ';not available'; So I%26#39;m wondering if you will be able to find them in any bookstore. The company does sell them online. I wonder if you will be here long enough that you could order them online before you go and have them delivered to you where you are staying- although that may be a bit risky.
I do appreciate that you made this post , as I had never heard of this program - hope you will be able to find the DVD%26#39;s- but don%26#39;t go to a bookstore without calling ahead, as they don%26#39;t seem to be easy to find.
There is a Waldenbooks in both the Florida Mall and the Mall @ Millenia

Maybe the post I made wasn%26#39;t clear and I don%26#39;t want to confuse the questioner. I know there are several Waldenbooks/Borders around, but according to their websites, neither chain carries the items she%26#39;s seeking.
I%26#39;m wondering if there is one of theose ';school supply'; places in the area that sells materials for those home schooling their children. It sounds like something they may want to carry.
At any rate, I%26#39;ll keep looking , but neither Waldenbooks, Barnes and Noble or Borders seems to carry the Follow Jade series. The company that produces it seems to sell it on line.
Books a Million list three titles in this series in their ';hard to find'; section. It may be worth calling them to see if they could get them to the store in the shopping area at Kirkman Road/I Drive corner.
Thanks all - I%26#39;ll follow up the links and see what I can come up with - I%26#39;ll post back and let you know if I have any luck. I did think about trying to get them delivered to our wdw resort but think I would be better paying for them and getting them to hold them in the shopif they will.
Watch this space!!

I%26#39;m going senile here!! I can give you links I found in the US because that is where I found out about the shipping costs just I can%26#39;t get them over here in the UK!! so here are the links:

I hadn%26#39;t realised they would be so hard to find though in the US and if I hadn%26#39;t had your info I would have presumed I could just turn up and get them without prior ordering of them so many many thanks!
I think I will ring the above and see if they can give me any helpful suggestions!
