Who are we?

As an Educational Consultant for Usborne Books & More, I am able to provide high-quality children's books to schools and libraries, as well as directly to families. I grew up with Usborne books in our home, and have fond memories of my sister and I poring over pages, spotting Stephen Cartwright's little yellow duck hiding, while also learning words in different languages! Naturally I was happy to be able to share these fantastic books with my own children. This business presented itself as a chance to have even more of these great books in our home, as well as a chance to spread the word to others and to generate an income.

With a great mission statement like this, how can I not love working with the Usborne Books & More team.

A staggering 65% of 4th graders read below grade level. As a consultant with Usborne Books & More, I have a real opportunity to have an impact on reducing that number, by getting our books in to as many hands as possible. Usborne was named the 2012 Children's Publisher of the Year, with very good reason! They are dedicated to publishing books which continue to draw kids in, speaking at their level and not down to them, and include fantastic illustrations to easily engage.

In addition to offering home parties, in which I can share some great tips for encouraging a love of books in your own home, I work with schools to offer no-cost book fairs and reading incentive programs. We offer a matching grant program to any organization using donated funds, and have a goal of donating $1 million in books this year! And we have a fantastic fundraising program that offers up to 40% back to any group looking to raise money.

I look forward to working with you to find the right book that will touch your child and foster a lifetime love of reading.
