The Barefoot Book of Jewish Tales

Delivery Information

My commitment to you

I order in copies of my books from my publishers and pack and send them to my customers myself, to ensure they are delivered in excellent condition. The books all have my hand-written signature. You can also send me your own message (at Checkout stage) that I will add as a personal inscription, to make the book extra special.

If the goods arrive either damaged while in transit or late, you are legally entitled to a replacement or a full refund once the goods have been returned to me. Please see below for details.

Take a look at my FAQs below, but you can also go to Conditions of Sale for my full Conditions of Sale policy.
