Friends, I’ve been busy lately—not just writing funny books for kids (though I am), but also trying to teach Amazon that “Donna Boock” is not a mistake.


That’s right. Apparently, the world’s biggest bookseller still thinks my name looks suspiciously like a misspelling of “book.” But Donna Boock is a real person (hi!), and she writes laugh-out-loud mysteries, clever chapter books, and delightful picture books for kids (if I do say so myself).


If you’ve noticed my weekly REACH posts have been on pause, that’s why. I've been working with a small but mighty team of five who put in a lot of invisible work to make my books more visible—to help them reach the readers who matter most: kids. They’re the reason I do what I do, and every ounce of effort has been about getting great stories into their hands.


But don’t worry—REACH posts will resume next week, full of fun, creative ideas to keep families reading and connecting together.


In the meantime, I could really use your help with this whole “Amazon thinks I’m imaginary” situation. Here’s the deal: Amazon’s algorithm starts to recognize an author when people search their name. So the more people who search “Donna Boock” on Amazon, the faster the algorithm learns that my name is a real search term—not a typo in need of spellcheck.


To make that easy (and fun), I’m kicking things off with something special…

🎃 Free Trick-or-Treat Cards + a Free Book as a Treat! 🎃

This Halloween, you can hand out free books right alongside your candy—no tricks, just extra treats!


I’ve created a set of printable trick-or-treat cards that give every little princess, pirate, and superhero a free Kindle copy of my picture book, Moo-La-La-Ti-Da! 


Here’s how it works:

  1. Download the printable trick-or-treat cards (for FREE, of course).

  2. Print them on plain paper or cardstock.

  3. Cut them out and hand them out with (or without) candy.

  4. Each child (with a little help from a grown-up) can scan the QR code and go straight to my search link with a list of my books.

  5. Click on the Kindle Edition of Moo-La-La-Ti-Da! and then hit “Buy now for Free.”


Every trick-or-treater gets a free kids Halloween book. You get to feel like the most literary house on the block. And don’t stop there—these cards make great giveaways for classroom parties, school events, and for your kids or grandkids too!


Here are the free printable cards:


Another easy way to help: After you search “Donna Boock” on Amazon using this easy link, download yourself a copy to read and leave a quick review—even a few words makes a huge difference! Reviews help Amazon’s algorithm recognize my books faster and help new readers discover them too.

The friendship lesson here, along with the clever turns of phrase and vivid images, are likely to make this a hit with Fancy Nancy series fans."

So please—take a minute to download your free trick-or-treat cards, gift someone or lots of someones a free Kindle copy of Moo-La-a-Ti-Da!, and help me show Amazon’s algorithm that this Boock is no mistake!


Thank you for cheering me on, helping me get great stories (and free books!) reaching young readers everywhere and for helping me show Amazon who I really am. I literally coudn't do this without you.


Stay Lit!
