Message:
I've already warned the kids that if I manage to score the 50th Anniversary edition, they're still going to read the beat-up paperback set. I'd rather keep beat-up reading copies around to become the ones that go to the beach, or get left at the grandparents' for when we forget to bring a book, or that permission is given to write in. I'm only giving up when pages go completely missing -- and then I have to favour recycling, to make new books from old rather than cut down trees for them.
