#ShopSmall – E-Books

December 12, 2011 by

Join Stef from StefLayton.com, Eryn from MamaHall.com and I  in supporting small businesses each Tuesday in December

The world has gone digital. Everything in online or in our laptops, tablets or phones. Why shouldn’t our Christmas gifts?!

E-books sales are sky rocketing. A big chunk of those e books are are self-published. These authors are running their own small businesses – small businesses that we can totally support this Christmas. There are so many great e books out there that would make fab gifts!

I was wondering about the if and how e-books could be bought as gifts. Katie at Kitchen Stewardship has a great post about giving e-books that answered my questions. She said…

Even though it’s possible and simple to forward an eBook PDF file to one or two friends (or dozens), it’s fair, appropriate and legal to purchase a copy for each person who will own the book.

She suggested buying an e-book copy for each recipient and making a CD or thumb drive to give or printing out a hard copy. You could put the hard copy in a binder to make it easy to read.

There are so many great e-books available. Here are a few I suggest.

Hope For The Weary Mom – You can download this e-book FREE!!

Cookbooks from Kitchen Stewardship  – Healthy Snacks To-Go, Smart Sweets, and more

Tell Your Time  from Amy Lynn Andrews – One of the best time management books I’ve ever read!

(disclosure – Kitchen Stewardship e-books and Tell Your Time are affiliate links)

What are your favorite e-books that would make great gifts?
