Did it cost more or did you manage to get a signed copy for the price as a normal one?

Is it a different/new edition? What does it look like? a printed signature or did she physically sign it?

Did Dymocks know it was signed? Like did it have a sign near it saying it was signed? Or were they totally unaware of it? In any case, it's pretty cool! I only have one signed book and I didn't even get to meet IC to get it done, it was my Mum that met her...

How exciting! I love it when things like that happen...I've got three of my IC books signed but never from a fluke like that

Hey, was that about 10 years ago? Or am I thinking of something else? Actually I think so, John Marsden came to our school when I was in Year 6 (I feel so oooold...) which was interesting but I never read any of the Tomorrow when the war began books.. only So Much to Tell You and Take my Word for It- and one of the others- I wasn't particularly excited so I don't think I even got anything signed- how stoopid was that?  Signed books are very special. |
