Shipping and handling

Shipping and handling is 10% of the total order or a minimum shipping and handling charge of $10.00 (whichever is the greater).

We aim to process and ship orders within one business week.

We send our orders UPS Ground. A street address must be provided. UPS Ground should deliver your order within 1-5 business days of shipping. Someone must be present to sign for the delivery. We ship only to addresses within the contiguous United States.

Incorrect, damaged or defective items

We want to make sure that you receive a quality product. Let us know within seven (7) days of delivery if the books do not match your order, were damaged in shipping, or have any defects. Contact us to arrange for replacement and for return of the original consignment.

Unwanted items

Please research the product before purchasing to make sure it will meet your expectations. You can contact us with any questions about products and request a small sample before buying. If you do not want to keep the books you ordered, contact us within seven (7) days of delivery about returning them. Unfortunately, because of the high cost of shipping books, you will be responsible for covering return shipping fees for unwanted books. We must receive returned books in their original, saleable condition to process the refund.

Fill out the request form and we'll be happy to send you a small sampling of Keep Books for you to see just how they can benefit your students in class, and how you can use them to build bridges between school and home.
