Free SAFE CROSSING bookplates for pre-orders

Is there a young amphibian fan you’d love to gift SAFE CROSSING to?
Pre-holiday pre-orders can receive a free gift book plate!
All you need to do is show me your pre-order receipt from your favorite bookseller, and I will send a gift book plate signed by the author (me!), along with an illustrated gift announcement card, to the name and address you request, while supplies last.

If you fill out this form by Dec. 10, I can send their gift book plate in time for the holidays.

When their book arrives after the release date Jan. 7, 2025, your giftee can peel and stick their signed book plate inside the front cover! And the cards are printed on 100% recycled paper by Paper Culture.

Not sure where to pre-order your copy of SAFE CROSSING? Ask your favorite local bookseller or order here:

Not sure who you want to gift your copy of SAFE CROSSING to, yet? You can choose from two options (while supplies last): Author-signed book plates with no dedication featuring a wood frog, or the spotted salamander gift bookplates that read “especially for:” and the name of your giftee(s). Just let me know when you fill out the form.

You’re invited December 1!

I’ll be signing SAFE CROSSING book plates in person at The Gallery@57, Pleasant Street, Malden, at 1 PM.

SAFE CROSSING is available for pre-order from the gallery, and if you can come, I’ll sign a personalized book plate for your special giftee! I will also be reading and signing copies of my award-winning debut picture book HOW TO SAY HELLO TO A WORM. There will be cookies!
