I do receive a commission on affiliate links. However, the commissions are very small. Your purchase from these links help keep this site going. Posts may or may not contain affiliate links. Books that are sent from the publisher are often ARC's or advanced reader copies have no value as they can not be resold. After reviewing these books, they are donated to the children in my neighborhood via a registered Little Library.
I do believe in supporting independent book stores, even if advertisements don't show up on my blog for those. Local independent book stores can provide activities and author signings that are not found on large internet sites. I encourage those who are attending author signings at such events to purchase the books they wished signed from the store in which the event takes place.
I do accept products for product reviews, but receiving a free product will not in any way influence my conclusions about that product. I consider products that promote literacy, learning, or any other educational type products for children. I also accept products that encourage role play and make believe as well as products that teach life skills such as cooking, crafts, etc.
If you have any questions, or would like a book considered for review, you may contact me at tzufelt05@yahoo.com. At this time, I am unable to accommodate self published book review requests.
