We've finally landed in the UK!! π¬π§ποΈ
Hello friends in the UK! I'm Andy Amendola, founder of Red Racer Books. AND I'm SOOO excited to finally say that my books are now available through the UK book trade! That means you can now get Red Racer Books through bookshops across the UK!!!!
And here's the best part! Even if you don't see my books on the shelf, just ask your local bookseller! They can look up the book in their ordering system and order a copy for you. It's that easy!!
No more trying to figure out how to get my books shipped across the pond!
And I'm kicking things off with something really special!
My new ABCs of Racing: My First Guide to Formula 1β’, 2nd Ed is now available in its FIRST EVER UK Edition!!
I didn't just take the American version and ship it over. I actually went back into the book and adapted the language, updated some racing terminology and descriptions, and even changed a few illustrations specifically for British F1 fans!
Some of those illustration changes are pretty subtle, too! If you spot them, reply and let me know! I'd love to see who notices!! π
βHere are some spreads from the UK Version β
Reviewers are calling it "Visually captivating and informative."
And this is just the beginning!
I'm already working on more UK editions, and here's a little teaser... I've even got a UK author with a new book coming next year!! More on that soon!
WHERE TO FIND THE BOOKS π
π One link, all the shops! Find the UK Edition here (Waterstones, Amazon UK, Blackwell's and more!)
π Your favourite local bookshop: Just ask them to order ABCs of Racing: My First Guide to Formula 1β’ using ISBN 9798997226039. This number is unique to the new UK version and they can look it up in their ordering system!
π¦ A quick note about ordering directly from me!
Unfortunately, RedRacerBooks.com won't be shipping orders to the UK for the moment. I'm transitioning to this new distribution model and making a few changes behind the scenes to get everything running smoothly. I'm hoping to have UK shipping through my website back up and running by December!
But in the meantime, one of the BEST ways you can support Red Racer Books is by visiting your local bookshop and asking them to order a copy!
That and TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS please!
Not only does that help get the books into your hands, but it also puts Red Racer Books on the bookseller's radar! And hopefully, the more people who ask for them, the more shops will start carrying them on their shelves!
Of course, Amazon UK is also a quick and convenient option if you'd rather order online!
This is a HUGE milestone for me and for Red Racer Books. It's something I've been working toward for a long time, and I honestly can't believe it's finally happening!!
To everyone who's been following along, supporting my books, and asking when they'd be available in the UK, THANK YOU!!
I'm so excited to finally get these books into the hands of more little racing fans across the pond!
Thanks so much!!
