I've been getting several emails about whether the book will be available in the States. Short answer: I don't know. The book is published by HarperCollins CANADA. They (and we) have plans to try to sell the rights in the U.S. But it's not happening in the next month or two. I suspect we have to show that the book did really well in Canada first, and then the American publishers will be willing to consider also taking it on (and even that may be a long shot with the state of the economy down there).

I know the shipping cost is a real pain and I'm very sorry about that. Unfortunately, it's completely out of our hands (but hey!  The cost of the book is only about $12 which converts to something like 75 cents American, right ;-))

And YES, the book DOES ship to the States, no problem, it's just a pain when you see that the shipping is as much as the book. <sigh>
