Are these books worth anything?

I have two Whitman/Western Publishing Company books.
They are both "Baby's First Book" non-toxic. They look & smell as if they were printed with some sort of crayons. The binding is a zigzag threading. As if sewed on a sewing machine.
The titles are :
Farm Animals & Play With Raggedy Andy.
Please tell me as much as you may know about these books. I have searched for years & just came across this website.
Thank You,
Brock West

Things are always worth something when there is a collector around! There has been a resurgence of nastalgic toys and books which will bring some value to the book. Depending on what condition it's in you could probably get anywhere from $15-$30 from a collector. They were mass printed, so that takes the value down now, but hold onto it and keep it in good condition and as the others fade out, yours will become more valuable.

Ebay is always a good place to gauge what collectibles are worth if you don't have an antique book expert in your area:
