Introducing My First Early Childhood Education Series!

 Are you looking for fun ways to teach your young child various different concepts? Whether you homeschool or not, if you have children under the age of nine, my little books offer fun and engaging ways to learn the basics. 

My first series, “Billy Bear Learns Adding,” teaches tricks on how to add one, two, three, four, and five. The books, which consist of rhymes, could even be used for reading practice! More importantly, however, they provide a foundation for doing mental math. I have just published that series, and the books are available in both ebook and paperback format.

Following are the book covers for each book in the series. Click each image to get to the product page on Amazon.






A couple of notes.

Note #1: Should you purchase any or all of the books, please don’t throw me under the bus in your review of it because I used clip art. It would have cost me well over $3,000 PER BOOK to have them professionally illustrated. While I believe it’s important to have story books properly illustrated – especially those that are given a higher price tag – the point of my educational books are to educate, not to entertain.

Speaking of price tags…

Note #2: I want to be clear about this because I know that a lot of people look at the prices of books these days and get sticker shock. In some cases, I do, too, and I can tell you with certainty that many self-published authors overprice their products simply because they want to make more money, not because the products are worth the price tag. So I want to explain the cost of not only the “Billy Bear” books, but those that I will publish in the future.

I have priced the ebooks as cheaply as Amazon will let me. I wanted to price them at 99 cents, but I guess because of all the graphics, that price point was too low given the cost to send pictures digitally. Therefore, they each cost $1.99.

The paperback books I have priced only 99 cents more than the lowest price Amazon allows per book, making their print price $7.99 each. Because of the lack of those kinds of books, and those that I will be creating in the future, I wanted to make them as affordable as possible for parents. Print-on-demand is much more costly than mass printing.

For each e-book purchase, I will make a whopping seventy cents. For each print book purchase, I will make eleven cents fewer than that. 

Thank you for understanding, and thanks in advance for considering them for your children’s educational needs. Follow me to stay informed about my future publications.
