I considered donating my collection to the UMass Science Fiction Society's library...I couldn't believe they didn't already have it, then again, not a lot of kids'/young adult series there...but I couldn't bear to part with it ^^; 

I just found an old picture I took of my bookshelf sometime in 1998 or so, because it had my Animorphs books only up to 19, the Andalite Chronicles, and the first two Megamorphs.  Meeeeeemorieeeeees. ....

Yeah I have the full set, plus all the Chronicles and Megamorphs, and the two alternamorphs books, and a meet the characters book from the TV series. They are all in GOOD condition, save for a few books from the beginning of the series that have a tear or two in the front cover(shame).

I would NEVER EVER EVER sell them, in fact I'd like my children to read them as they grow if they would like to.  I'm currently re-reading the entire series including the extra books, which I don't think of as "extra", in chronological order. When I'm finished(on #21), I am going to get a bunch of those sealable air tight baggies and vacuum seal all of them and then they go into storage. I want them to remain in decent condition.

But hey, by all means, if you'd like to sell, go ahead and commit yourself to a life of regret. Hehe...
I went to the window and looked up at the stars. Somewhere up there, around one of those
cold, twinkling stars, was the Andalite home world. Somewhere up there was . . . hope.

<They'll come,> Tobias said. <The Andalites will come. And until then . . . >

I nodded and wiped away my tears. "Yeah," I said. "Until then, we fight."

I agree with TheFearlessLeader.. .
To sell them would be like sell my own heart... I just couldn't. I'm sure, in few years, I'll read them again... and if a friend, if somebody, (or, how know, if I have a child later...) want to read them... I don't think many people in France have the full collection, some people must have the French collection, but it isn't "full". Even now, I feel if I want it really full, I need all the books in English and the 5 books in Japanese ^_^'

I also diligently collected the entire series. After such hard work, I could never bear to part with them. I'm going to be an elementary school teacher and hope to be able to have those in my classroom if I teach the right grade. Also, if I have kids I'd like them to read those also. ^_^
