    I am a 44 year old mother of 2 boys who LOVE your books as much as I did when I was a kid, and I desperately want to get the Bugs Potter books for them. But I can't find them! At least, not for less than $800..... Is there any way to get copies??

    Hi, Danica,


    Thanks for posting. Re: the Bugs Potter books. They're both pretty old. I think "Nickaninny" is out of print. Have you tried Scholastic Canada, the original publisher? They're at  1-(888) 752-4690 for inquiries. 


    There's also the U.S. New York Head Office:  1-(800)- 770-4662.


    Then there are second-hand bookstores. And Amazon, where I suspect the price might be high. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I don't send out books. Good hunting!
