If you click on a book cover you go to the AMazon page that describes it. If you click on "Shop Now" it takes you to the screen where you can immediately add that book to your shopping cart in Amazon. Remember that if you buy a book by clicking on its cover or the "Shop Now" Icon you will not only enjoy the book but you will be supporting Familias de Terlingua at no extra cost to you.
