Then over the top of that with clear plastic. I will always know what movies were playing at the time I started school. Or if I am bored play the crossword. Other kids thought it was a great idea.

For school books it might be possible to cover them with clear duraseal over top to extend the life of the book. Pick up some neat pillowcases form the local op shop! Good luck.

I did my shopping early this year (only to be maddened by the fact I paid $4.99 for contact that was being sold for 49 cents three weeks later)! Anyway... If anyone has any bright ideas for nicer book covering please respond!
