So - you want to buy my books?

So- you want to buy my books?

There are lots of ways to do that. My authors, Darrel and Sally, have these suggestions.



1. If you are at school, or if you know someone who is, order through the Scholastic Book Club.



2. Go to your local bookshops. If you can't see the titles you want on the shelf, ask the assistant. If the assistant says the books are "not in stock", ask him or her to order them for you. You will need to quote the title(s), author and publisher.

3. Go to an on-line book shop. There are lots, including Booktopia (at http://www.booktopia.com.au ). If you order through them, they get the books from the supplier for you.

4. You can also telephone Scholastic directly and order the titles. (There is a small packing fee.)

5. You can ]order through Amazon, but you need to be careful as the UK editions have different covers and different titles. Read the blurb to make sure you don't order the same book twice. There are French Canadian editions, but the two US editions and the English-language Canadian editions are very much like the Australian ones, and have the same titles and covers.

6. Bolinda Audio ( at http://www.bolinda.com/aus/ ) have the first few on CD - they're ace, and not at expensive as most audio books.

7. Try eBay!

hi im a student and i want to know how much are you selling your books online

Sally_Odgers said...

We don't sell the books ourselves. The price for a Jack Russell book depends on which site you buy from. Amazon have them for about five dollars USD each, and Australian book sellers have them from $6 each. The audio version in more.

If you go to http://www.kinokuniya.com.sg/ you'll find a listing for some of the series. The books cost about SGD12.79. Each book is separate in the paperback format. The Playaway format has two books to a set.
