We are publishing a professionally-bound book!  Two pages of the book will be created solely by your own child!

You have the opportunity to order a copy of the book.  You may choose to order a standard-bound copy for $19.95 (features full-color printing and a glossy 8.5 x 11″ hardcover) or a deluxe-bound copy for $24.90 (features an 8.5 x 11″ matte cover for a sophisticated smudge-resistant finish and is bound with thicker, more durable cerulean blue end-sheets). Keep your eye out for a yellow paper with an order form coming home in your child’s backpack on Monday, March 6th.  

Orders must be turned in to our classroom no later than TUESDAY, MARCH 14th. If we receive ALL order forms back by the deadline (including those checked “NO, I am not interested…,”) our class will receive a free copy of the book to add to our classroom library!

There is an option to pay online. You will need to record the authorization code you receive after payment on the paper order form. It is necessary for us to have the signed paper form whether you order or not. Click here to order online: Published Book Online Payments
