How do book orders work?  Ideally, they will be pre-sold a few weeks before my visit.  (Both publishers would like a THREE WEEK lead time for orders.) I want to make the process easy for you so...drum roll please...I give you the book order!
 

There are a few different ways you can order books:

1. Order from a local, independent bookstore.  They'll give you a 20% discount on each book!
This is a great option if you want to support your local Indie OR need books faster than fast! 
(Very helpful for last minute orders!)

2. Order directly from the publishers.  If you do this, you will get a 40-50% discount! 
Some schools pass the savings to the students while other schools use the money saved to help defray the
cost of my visit.  For example: You can charge $8.50 for my hardcover books OR charge up
to the $16.95 list price and use the savings to help pay for the visit. Or... meet somewhere in between. 
That means that if you sell 100 Katharine books for $10.00, you will have $150.00 to use toward my program.
If you are short on funds but want an author to visit, this option is ideal. To make it extra easy-breezy for you,
I'll customize your book order to reflect the discount your school chooses to give.

*Order Katharine the Almost Great: Orders must go through Stephanie Hedlund at ABDO.
You may call 1-952-698-2408 or e-mail her at shedlund@abdopublishing.com

Order Splashing by the Shore: www.gibbs-smith.com or 1-800-748-5439
 

*You must indicate that you are ordering books for the "Author Signing" to get discount. ABDO will offer a 50% discount
to schools where I am signing books! Therefore, the $8.50 price quoted above.
