Websites in parents’ good books

PARENTS and students can take the stress out of shopping for school books this summer by putting their feet up and buying them over the internet.

A number of websites have been developed in recent years which allow customers tick off the booklists without even stepping outside their front door.

Many of them can also help parents make savings on the massive cost of school books, which can reach up to €100 for primary pupils and as much as €300 for students at second level.
