I want it so bad - The Rainbow Box

Sometimes I get temporarily crazy looking for a thing I had and loved in my childhood. the past few days it has been this series of books:

This series is called the Rainbow Box. I luckily still own my favorite book from it, the Rabbit Box, a long poem that I often quote (including in the "about me" statement of my Facebook page for whatever that's worth). These books are incredibly out of print and expensive if you can manage to find them. My hope is that someone's hippie mom bequeathed these books to you and you don't have room for them in your book case and want to give/trade or sell them to me.
